Selected:Feynman Technique Risk Storming Knowledge Mapping ARID (Active Reviews for Intermediate Designs)

Criterion	Knowledge Modeling Feynman Technique	Architecture Risk Storming	Knowledge Modeling Knowledge Mapping	Architecture ARID (Active Reviews for Intermediate Designs)
Purposedifferent	The Feynman Technique checks understanding by explaining a topic so that it stays easy for others to understand. It makes knowledge gaps visible before they become costly in everyday work.	Helps clarify architecture context, options, and consequences in concrete terms. It organizes technical context, alternatives, and consequences. The result is captured as an Annotated Diagram, a Prioritized Risk List, and an Action Backlog.	Knowledge Mapping makes knowledge, gaps, and transfer paths visible across a field. It fits when expertise should not just exist but also be findable and transferable.	ARID examines how well developers can work with a technical design. It focuses on a part of the system that can still be revised, between the architecture overview and the detailed specification.
