WHY GRAPHIC ORGANIZER?

– LEARNING TO THINK IS AN ESSENTIAL SKILL NEEDED IN

EDUCATION TODAY.
– LITERATURE SUPPORT THE USE OF ORGANIZERS TO FACILITATE
AND IMPROVE LEARNING OUTCOMES FOR A WIDE RANGE OF
LEARNERS.
– HAVING A WAY TO ORGANIZE IDEAS, FACTS, AND CONCEPTS
GRAPHICALLY FACILITATES EFFECTIVE STUDENT LEARNING.
WHY GRAPHIC ORGANIZER?

– MANY STUDENTS ARE VISUAL LEARNERS.

– STUDENTS ARE REQUIRED TO THINK IN MULTIPLE DIRECTIONS
WHEN USING GRAPHIC ORGANIZERS WHICH CAN MAKE LEARNING
AN ACTIVE AND MEANINGFUL PROCESS.
– GRAPHIC ORGANIZERS ARE FLEXIBLE AND ENDLESS APPLICATION.
– G.O SHOW ORDER AND COMPLETENESS OF A STUDENTS
THOUGHT PROCESS – STRENGTHS AND WEAKNESSES OF
UNDERSTANDING.
WHAT ARE THE USES OF
GRAPHIC ORGANIZERS?
TYPES, USES AND EXAMPLES
OF GRAPHIC ORGANIZERS
FISHBONE MAP

Is used to show the interaction of

a complex event or complex
phenomenon.

What are the factors that cause X?

How do they interrelate?
Are the factors that cause X the
same as those that cause complex
phenomenon?
SPIDER MAP

Is used to describe a
central idea: a thing,
process, concept, or
preposition with
support.
T-CHART

Is used to analyze
similarities and differences
between two things by
placing individual
characteristics in either the
left or right sections.
VENN DIAGRAM

Is used to analyze
similarities and
differences between
two things.
COMPARE/CONTRAST
MATRIX
PMI

Evaluating is used to show

POSITIVE, NEGAYIVE, and
interesting attributes of a subject,
concept, topic, solution etc.

In order to determine the nature

of the outcomes and whether it
will be worth continuing or not.
CONTINUUM SCALE
RANKING
CYCLE

Is used to show how a

series of events interact
to produce a set of
results again and again.
BRIDGING SNAPSHOTS

Is used to see changes overtime,

reveal the sequence of step-by-step
methods, illustrates complex
processed and show cause and
effect.
KWLH

Help students to activate prior

knowledge. It is a group
instruction activity that serves
as a model for active thinking
during reading.
SYNECTICS

It provides an approach to
creative thinking that depends
on looking at, what appears
on the surface as, unrelated
phenomenon and drawing
relevant connections.
 NETWORK TREE

Is used to show causal information

or hierarchy or branching
procedures.
CEREBRAL CHART

Use hierarchies, yet tend to be more

free form in the beginning.

Use to quickly amass information or

elements , stimulate creative thinking,
and develop new ideas, in an
unrestrained and spontaneous
manner, generated either individually
or by a group.
WEB

Is used to list facts, definitions,

attributes, or examples related to a
single topic, concept, or theme.

May also be used to compare and

contrast information generated on
left and right sides of web.
HYPOTHESIZE GRAPHIC
ORGANIZERS
– IS A FORM OF HYPOTHESIS; TO ASSUME HYPOTHESIS, HYPOTHESIS
IS A PROPOSITION, OR SET OF PROPOSITION, SET FORTH AS AN
EXPLANATION FOR THE OCCURRENCE OF SOME SPECIFIED OF
PHENOMENA.
– EITHER ASSERTED MERELY AS A PROVISIONAL CONJECTURE TO
GUIDE INVESTIGATING OR ACCEPTED AS A HIGHLY PROBABLE IN
THE LIGHT OF ESTABLISHED FACTS.
– A PROPOSITION ASSUMED AS A PREMISE IN AN ARGUMENT.
HYPOTHESIS MATRIX

Allows you to identify

the three basic
components of most
hypotheses.
QUESTIONS

HYPOTHESIZING is used to list a set of

QUESTIONS.

Set forth as an explanation for the

occurrence of some specified group of
phenomena, either asserted merely as a
provisional conjecture to guide
investigation or accepted as highly
probable in the light of establish facts.
PROBLEM/SOLUTION
OUTLINE
Is used to show the problem solving
process by defining the components
of the problem and attempted
solutions.

Basic elements of the problem may

vary, but the process is similar.
HUMAN INTERACTION
OUTLINE

INTERACT IS TO ACT ONE UPON TO

ANOTHER
INTERACTION – Reciprocal action, effect,
or influence interwork, interplay, mesh,
intermesh, engage, dovetail, mortise;
interweave, interlace, intertwine,
interchange; co-act and cooperate.
