Concept mapping

When to use it

When concepts, rules and exceptions are easy to confuse.

How to use it

Label connections so each reads as a complete statement, then check links across groups and exceptions.

A real-life example

Belonging to a group does not mean every special permission can be shared with the whole group. An access map must define what each relationship means.

Try it in a game

Connect robots, groups and rooms so relationship statements control the gates. Share permissions, then identify exceptions that must stay separate.

After playing, ask yourself

Which move changed your later choices? If conditions changed, would the same approach still work? What evidence would you need to check before applying the relationships in this game to real life?

Games are simplified practice environments for exploring tools and when to use them. Completing a game does not demonstrate mastery and is not a personality or professional assessment.
