Making abstract concepts visible in class
Teachers create concept maps that show how ideas such as force, motion, and energy relate, display them during lessons, and have students complete their own versions to reinforce the connections.
Result: Presenting concepts visually helps students grasp abstract relationships and gives teachers a clear way to check understanding.
