A schema is a cluster of related concepts that form a framework for thinking about a topic or event.  Schemas provide expectations that allow us to use a term in different contexts.  Schemas can accumulate new information or can be altered to accommodate new facts.  A schema  for an event (going to the restaurant) is known as a script.  These help us decide how to act in a specific situation.
