Concept map
Origin: Lat. conceptus mappa
A diagram that helps to organize ideas and their relationships in a graphic manner. It can also diagram the cause and effect relationships of the impacts of trends or future possible events, as in a Futures Wheel. It can diagram a system with its sub-elements. Futurists use it to package complex information into a visual representation that communicates better than many words.
Spanish: Mapa conceptual
