17. ➔ We need 5 to 6 groups (3 on the icons sorting, 3 on
    the navigation)
    ➔ Take a look at the cards in front of you
    ➔ Put together the cards that belong together for
    you (you can discuss the classification)
    ➔ Name the groups you’ve created
    1. Arrange and group the cards

18. ➔ Gather together the 3 groups and compare your
    groups
    ◆ Are there similarities?
    ◆ Are there things that totally differ from one
    group to another
    ➔ Can you already see some statistically significant
    patterns?
    2. Gather and discuss
