# 1.5 Concept Narrowing

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="✓  INSTRUCTIONS & DELIVERABLE" %}

1. **Provide each team member time to share their ideas** and the value of each concept documented.
2. **Synthesize your concepts into three top concepts** that all team members find interesting and valuable. Document the three concepts in the template linked below the same as you did in the previous individual exercise.
3. **Develop a sample dialogue flow diagram for each of the three concepts** that is at least as detailed as [this example](https://docs.google.com/drawings/d/1Uavu4TwD4yCmc7isSPJ6T4LM7snF8KYMk29p3vFGh8k/edit?usp=sharing), but begins to show some more detail like [this example](https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1600/1*7mIJHfbIE7A9TELnXOaASQ.jpeg) from [this article](https://blog.prototypr.io/how-can-you-create-a-simple-working-chatbot-in-2-hours-from-scratch-f92c31c7e974). Include your sample dialogue flow in each concept using a Google drawing embed or photo of a hand-drawn version. Make sure it is clearly legible and useful for describing the concept.

   > ### *Note: This will not be a complete (or exhaustive) dialogue flow chart, only a sample of a common interaction with a user that you envision.* <a href="#note-this-will-not-be-a-complete-or-exhaustive-dialogue-flow-chart-only-a-sample-of-a-common-interac" id="note-this-will-not-be-a-complete-or-exhaustive-dialogue-flow-chart-only-a-sample-of-a-common-interac"></a>
4. **Share your three concepts to six people in your class** and document feedback on the value, interest-level, and complexity of each concept. Be sure to carefully explain the concepts and use the dialogue flow diagram to help illustrate the idea. Be sure to discuss the tone and personality of the potential chatbot. Also, capture in your document any ideas that people give you that may be incorporated later.
5. **Have each team member share your team's three concepts with two people outside of class.** (For example, share with a total of six people if you have a team of three.) Try to target a different, but pertinent, audience---like parents, siblings, coaches, etc. Capture the feedback as before.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.idew.org/project-chatbot/project-instructions/1-discover-and-define-problem/1.5-concept-narrowing.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
