01

Name the relationship

Provide a relating factor such as 'is a part of' or 'is used for.'

02

Supply matching pairs

List concept pairs or ask for examples appropriate to the learner's level.

Test the analogy

Read each pair as a sentence and ask AI to replace pairs that break the relationship.

Compare relationships across pairs

A bridge map displays analogies: one pair relates in the same way as another. Its key is the relating factor, the phrase that should make sense for every pair.

Use it to practice analogical reasoning

Work with vocabulary, functions, classifications, or part-to-whole relationships when learners need to recognize a repeated pattern.

What to check

  1. State the relating factor. Write a phrase that explains the connection between each pair.
  2. Preserve pair direction. Do not alternate between object-to-function and function-to-object.
  3. Use parallel relationships. Similar-looking words alone do not make a valid analogy.
  4. Choose familiar examples. Learners should understand the pairs before testing the relationship.
  5. Discuss the limits. A useful analogy may match one relationship without matching every property.

Arrange analogies in MyMap

MyMap can organize pairs around a stated relationship and revise weak examples. The fixed example connects lion, wolf, and bee with their group names under an animal-to-group-name factor.

Common questions

What is a relating factor?

It is the relationship shared by all pairs, such as 'is the capital of' or 'is used to measure.'

Can one bridge map mix different relationships?

Use one consistent factor per bridge map. Separate maps make different relationships easier to compare.

How can I check a generated analogy?

Read every pair using the exact factor. If the sentence changes meaning or needs a different verb, revise the pair.
