As with processing, much of
discourse mapping occurs “behind the scenes”.
Part of message processing is generating a mental map of the
relationships between pieces of information or ideas in the message. Typically, mental maps look like webs. While these maps are useful for thinking
about and contextualizing information, they do not help with producing
spatially-based discourse maps in an interpretation. This workshop will review a method of
discourse mapping that can move from text to a structured interpretation making
relationships in the message overt.
