Semantic relationships

Prerequisite and related edges are what make this a graph rather than a menu.

Misconceptions

Stored on the entity so worksheets, quizzes and lesson plans all target the same known errors.

Misconception

Learners over-generalise a special case of introducing inheritance to every situation.

Correction — Present a deliberate non-example and ask why the rule fails.

Misconception

Students treat introducing inheritance as a rule to memorise rather than a relationship to understand.

Correction — Anchor the rule in a visual model first, then abstract it — the model is the explanation.

Curriculum alignment

Curricula, boards and countries are data — adding one never changes the architecture.
