โ€œHow do you create a concept model?โ€
Write down the numbers 1 through 9 on a sheet of paper.
You will each take turns selecting numbers from the list
(crossing off each number once it has been selected). โ€จ
The winner is the ๏ฌrst person to have chosen exactly
three numbers which add up to 15.
For example if I selected 9, 6, 2 and you selected 3, 8, 4 then
you would win because 3 + 8 + 4 = 15.

Letโ€™s play a (different) gameโ€ฆ
Consider a 3 x 3 magic square:
The rows, columns, and diagonals all add
up to 15, and moreover every way of
writing 15 as the sum of three numbers
from 1 to 9 is represented.
When you choose a number, draw an X
over it; when I choose a number, circle it.

Place in Space (AKA "How to Design A Concept Model")

  • 1. IA SUMMIT 2016 @stephenanderson Stephen P. Anderson #IAS16 t presented by Place in Space AKA โ€œHow to Create A Concept Modelโ€
  • 3. โ€œHow do you create a concept model?โ€
  • 4. Write down the numbers 1 through 9 on a sheet of paper. You will each take turns selecting numbers from the list (crossing off each number once it has been selected). โ€จ The winner is the ๏ฌrst person to have chosen exactly three numbers which add up to 15. For example if I selected 9, 6, 2 and you selected 3, 8, 4 then you would win because 3 + 8 + 4 = 15. Letโ€™s play a gameโ€ฆ 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
  • 5. Letโ€™s play a (different) gameโ€ฆ Consider a 3 x 3 magic square: The rows, columns, and diagonals all add up to 15, and moreover every way of writing 15 as the sum of three numbers from 1 to 9 is represented. When you choose a number, draw an X over it; when I choose a number, circle it. 4 9 2 3 5 7 8 1 6
  • 6. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 4 9 2 3 5 7 8 1 6 Why is Tic-tac-toe so much simpler? VS
  • 7. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 4 9 2 3 5 7 8 1 6 Tic tac toe is a model that more easily reveals patterns VS
  • 8. Customer JourneysBusiness Model Canvas Gantt charts Site Maps Models we use that reveal patterns: 9 Grids Charts & Diagrams Data Visualizations Abstract Patterns Models, Templates & Frameworks X Y Matrices Venn Diagrams Cycles ComparisonsBubble ClustersStacked Bar Graph Line Graph
