| Criterion |  Knowledge Modeling Peer Instruction |  Architecture Architecture Decision Record |  Architecture C4 Model |
|---|---|---|---|
Purposedifferent | Peer Instruction uses group thinking to clarify difficult terms or concepts faster. The method combines individual reflection with social correction and shared precision. | An ADR permanently records an architecture decision with context, trade-offs, and consequence. It creates continuity for later changes because the decision path stays traceable. | The C4 Model makes a system legible across several resolution levels, from context down to code. It suits situations where different audiences need to understand the same architecture from different altitudes. |
