Visualizing the research process

There's no question that some people, when needing directions to get from Point A to Point B, respond better to a textual list of directions, while others prefer a map (and of course, some like both).

Some students may need a map of the research process. While there are no doubt many of these somewhere on the Web, I'm especially impressed by this map designed specifically for genealogical research by Mark Tucker:

Do you think your students would benefit from a map like this one? Let me know what you think.
