Criterion
Four paper collections for projects, responsibilities, resources and archives.
Knowledge Modeling
PARA Method
EventStorming on a long working surface: colored event cards form a business flow, friction points are marked, and a boundary separates different areas of responsibility.

Hypothesis Prioritization Canvas
Paper illustration of a Test Card with four fields for hypothesis, test, metric, and success threshold.

Purposedifferent
The PARA Method organizes knowledge into Projects, Areas, Resources, and Archives. It creates order when digital notes, files, and tasks no longer cleanly fit current work.When a domain consists of many events, rules, and states, it creates a shared modeling space for the team. It bundles language, flows, and boundaries before domain knowledge fragments into siloed views.When many hypotheses compete for attention, it brings order to their learning sequence and importance. It separates problem, assumption, solution, and evidence. The result is captured as a prioritization canvas and a hypothesis backlog.The Test Card turns a critical assumption into a testable claim and specifies in advance which result counts as success.
