Spanish term

descarga del cerebro

Spanish to English Social Sciences Psychology Mind Maps
La mapa mental es una simple *descarga del cerebro* que ayuda a estimular nuevas ideas y conexiones

My interpretation:

Mind mapping is simply a process by which we are able to get our thoughts down on paper, which helps...

However, I'm after something a bit more snappy - it's a slideshow and therefore can't be too long-winded.

Look forward to hearing your ideas!

Many thanks,

Lisa

brainstorming

If I understand the concept correctly as used here, it is often referred to as "brainstorming."

Typically used in writing, but is any activity where individuals general ideas related to a topic or task; done in either groups or individually with no restriction on quality of ideas. Once ideas are generated, they are they evaluated and a decision about which to pursue is made.

Brainstorming (sometimes referred to as Word Storming or Thought Showering) is an organized approach for producing ideas by letting the mind think without interruption. Term was coined by Alex Osborn.
