Big Ideas
- Understanding the difference between graphs and directed graphs is essential for applying graph theory to real-world problems.
- The directionality of edges in a graph fundamentally changes how relationships and processes are represented and analyzed.
Essential Questions
- What is a graph and how does it differ from a directed graph?
- Why might we need to use directed graphs instead of undirected graphs when modeling real-world situations?
- How does directionality in a graph affect the relationships it models?
- What are examples of scenarios best modeled by graphs versus those best modeled by directed graphs?
