How do people with different background/training communicate ideas?

Spatial Concepts

  • Assembly instructions
    • Doorknob
  • Maps
    • Drawing a map from Brown CIT down to Kennedy Plaza from memory -- what do subjects include?

Non-spatial (or, not observable) Concepts

  • Chemical processes
    • Acid + Base = Water + Salt
    • Rust/Oxidation
  • Astronomical processes
    • Greenhouse gas build up
    • Albedo -- light absorption/reflection
  • Computational processes
    • Explaining concurrency, race conditions, deadlocks
    • Explaining inductive proofs to non-math people
    • Explaining the 'map' function (i.e., for all elements, or numbers, in a set apply some function to get a new set)
