Lilly Lutz Blog #3

Today in class we learned about mental mapping. We also learned about how geographers describe where things are and we defined mental maps and activity spaces. We also discussed three ways we use mental maps. Finally, we discussed how mental maps are used in human geography.

A mental map is a personal visualization a spatial information. Its a map inside our minds. We use mental maps for a few different reasons. One of them is, finding our way from point A to point B. Another one is, organizing and storing information for future reference. Finally, a way to make a meaning, mental maps provide people with essential means of making sense of the world and recalling different information about human features and patterns of the Earth.

I learned many things about what mental maps are all about and I learned that it can be very hard to create a map of something, but it can also be very easy.
