How to organize research visually

Separate source excerpts, your interpretation and open questions, then connect them with explicit relationships.

Creative references collected for a visual workspace

Keep the source attached

Save the original link or document with enough title and date information to find it again. Mark copied language as a quotation.

Write interpretation separately

A nearby note can say what the evidence means to you. Keeping it separate prevents a paraphrase from looking like the source’s claim.

Illustrative example, not a user canvas.

Map agreement and tension

Group sources that address the same question. Add a connector label that says whether they support, complicate or contradict an idea.

Keep exploring your ideas.
