Concept stretching with collisions

Colliding Concepts is idea or device, that has pupils reflect on the connections between two related concepts. The connections are entirely straightforward, and the deliberate process of working out how they relate to each other inevitably leads to a better appreciation of each concept in itself.

In the language of p4c.com, each of the concepts is 'stretched' in the direction of the other.
