2nd stepSHOW ME THE MONEY!
Arrange relationships amongst the information
Is it possible to arrange the information by dividing the space into a vertical and a horizontal axis? If yes, how you arrange the elements also has significance. Examples of sections on the vertical and horizontal axes
- Points/ detailed explanation - Definitions, abstract concepts/ concrete examples - Compare and contrast/ points to consider - Purpose/ means, points to remember - Options/ advantages, disadvantages etc.
Examples of arrangement on the vertical axis (top to bottom)- Order, importance, hierarchy, elevation etc.
Examples of arrangement on the horizontal axis (left to right)- Time, sequence, evolution, development, grade etc.
