Concept Notes
In this lesson, we will tackle about analogy. But, let us first define analogy
and then we will proceed to the types of analogies.
Analogy is a term “word relationship.” Analogies are like word puzzle. It
always contains two pairs of words. Solving analogies helps you develop
critical thinking skills.
Analogy plays a significant role in problem solving, as well as decision
making, argumentation, perception, generalization, memory, creativity,
invention, prediction, emotion, explanation, conceptualization and
communication.
Analogies are such an important skill for students to master. Many
standardized tests use analogies to check for vocabulary mastery.
People often wonder about the effectiveness of analogies. What do they
teach? How do they work? Why are they so useful? What makes analogies
so effective is their ability to get students to think critically. In order to
answer an analogy question correctly, the student has to form a logical
relationship, or "bridge" between two words. They must think about how the
words are related. Since words represent particulars (not universals), there
is a nearly infinite number of ways they might be related.
Analogies are useful in different subject areas to enhance learning of key
concepts. This makes them useful for assessment, but they can also be
used as an effective learning strategy as well. As students create incorrect
analogies, analyse the relationships their analogies are suggesting, and
then correct them accordingly, students are grappling with ideas, monitoring
and revising their thinking, and otherwise actively consider the often
complex relationships between disparate things.
An analogy is often represented as follows: A : B :: C : D.
A and B (of the first set) are related to each other in the same way that
C and D (of the second set) are related to each other.
Meet : Avoid
Never : Always
Chaos : Peace
Individual and Group Cattle : Herd
Relationship A group of ‘Cattle’ is called ‘Herd’.
When one word of the pair is the
Pupils : Class
collective group of another word of
Players : Team

Musicians : Band

When one word of the pair ‘Book’ is the product of ‘Author’.

Worker and Tool Relationship Chef : Knife
‘Knife’ is a tool used by ‘Chef’.
When one word of the pair

Author : Pen
