About
The OP1: LIPD mind map template is a comprehensive 238-node framework designed for students and practitioners in ecosocial design and regeneration to plan, document, and reflect on their Learning in Practice Diploma (LIPD). Organized across seven major branches—ABSTRACT AND SPECIFICATIONS, CORE REPORT, REFLECTION AND COMMENTARY, SUPPORTING EVIDENCE, REQUIREMENTS, SCHEDULE, and RISK—this template provides a structured approach to creating a portfolio of learning. Key nodes include 'Golden Circle: WHY, WHAT, HOW' for purpose articulation, 'Skillflex tracker' for tracking skill development, and 'Patrix-Busting' for critical reflection on systemic intersections. The template also includes a Journal Map for logging project outcomes and un/learnings. This OP1: LIPD template serves as a complete project management and reflective tool, helping users meet academic requirements while fostering deep personal and professional growth.
