(Update: it might be better to just come up with a list of questions that are always good to ask/have been really useful in the past (in other domains) and use that instead. The chart is just 1) a row of such questions 2) a row where you add a checkmark after you’ve answered that question (about the topic you’re trying to understand.)
A lens/frame/framework is a way of looking at things. I meant this to be a suggestion to see how a lens can be applied to other domains by constructing a chart/checklist as follows:
There are n columns and 2 rows, where n is the number of lenses. The first column tells you what is in each row. The top element of the first column contains ‘the name of your idea’. The bottom element of the first column can contain the word “lens”. The bottom row (after the first element) contains the name of each lens (that you have given it). The top row (after the first element) contains either blank spaces or check marks*.
Coming up with a procedure to see if you’ve thought through all the implications of a model may also be useful.
*One could also put a page number in it, and write about that idea through that lens on that page.
