Philosophicons is an educational tool which can be used to visualize the argumentative structure of philosophical texts. It is aimed specifically at high school philosophy education.

Each form represents a textual element. For example, a proposition is represented by a white hexagonal plateau. Smaller objects can be placed on top of this plateau to define its characteristics, i.e. whether the proposition is implicit or explicit.
