An analogue is a second system compared with a first (the target system) when making an analogy
Example of use:
"Teaching then often involves finding analogues from students' own experience that can be used as conceptual hooks (sic) that can anchor (sic) new learning to something that is already understood" (Taber, 2013, p.1378)
