Have you ever created a sociogram for your group projects?

No, I haven't, but I've heard they're really helpful.

Root Explanation

Sociogram → It is formed from "socius" (from Latin, meaning companion or ally) and "gramma" (from Greek, meaning something written or drawn). A sociogram is a visual representation of social relationships, illustrating how companions or allies are connected.

Memory Tip

Think of 'companions' ('socius') being 'drawn' or 'written' ('gramma') in a diagram — that's what a sociogram represents.
