BIG IDEAS AROUND ‘Frameworks’

‘Frameworks’ BIG IDEAS

This is a “Thinking Model” about Big Ideas Around ‘Frameworks’.

[Is it “correct”? Is it “comprehensive”?]
[‘Thinking Models” are representations – graphical- of thinking and understanding]

[“Thinking Models” are a “snapshot” of Thinking]

[As snapshots, Thinking Models need not be comprehensive]

[As Thinking Evolves e.g. driven by data][As Thinking evolves e.g. informed by research and additional information – Thinking Models may evolve]

There are a number of ideas (“Big Ideas”) around ‘Frameworks’. “Big Ideas” including the following short sub list.

The man said, “You can do all that with ‘Miro’!”.

The man is a clever academic working with other clever professionals at high-levels of thinking designing communicating productivity. ‘Frameworks’ is “Entry-Level” – intended for Ordinary People and especially in Foundational/Early Years Education for Children “The Next Generation of Citizens of the World, Who Need to Think Straight in the Age of Information Overload” (Daniel Levitin, “The organised Mind 2015).

Peter Ward has been working on a theory and a way of “information modelling” for some 35 + years and as such – as ‘Frameworks’ – for some 15 years.

Simple; Small; graphical; hierachical (decomposition, analysis, construction, framed & constrained, rule based) and object-oriented. Things; Entities; Types: Classes: Clusters; Categories; Arrays; Meaning. The Model is the Interface.

Ideas listed are linked with their corresponding Posts.

“Big Ideas” such as “Agency” and “Personal Computing” and “Structured Thinking”. In these POSTS, I have summarised my thinking about these ideas. My aim is to communicate and to engage the Reader, who may perhaps create a REPLY with observations, questions, criticisms.

I have discussed a few of these in the Book: ‘Frameworks’ A Simple Methodology for Structured Thinking; Making Sense of It All in the Age of Big Information, First Edition.

My idea for a future Second Edition, is to cover the “Big Ideas around ‘Frameworks'” in more depth.

My concern – regarding the First Edition – is that my description of the Methodology and the Prototype Tool may be a little buried in the ideas and the discussion?

My idea is to create a separate, short, (Classroom) Manual – with the ‘Frameworks’ Methodology and Prototype Tool.
