<![CDATA[This study examined the impact of the mind-mapping technique on improving students' descriptive writing skills. A pre-test and post-test were administered to 20 students to evaluate their writing performance before and after using mind mapping. The findings demonstrated a notable improvement, with the average pre-test score of 60.3 rising to 78.5 in the post-test. Statistical analysis using a paired-sample t-test confirmed that this increase was significant (t(19) = 5.62, p < 0.001). The results indicate that mind mapping enhances students’ ability to structure and expand their ideas effectively, leading to greater writing fluency. These findings are consistent with prior studies that highlight the benefits of visual learning strategies in academic writing. Given its positive impact, incorporating mind mapping into writing instruction is recommended to support students' learning. Future research could explore its use in various writing genres and digital learning environments to further assess its adaptability and effectiveness.
