Collect different examples of graphic organizers indicate how each is used
Learning map
Learning maps visually display the key takeaways skills, ideas,

knowledge that student should take away from the lesson. It
usually provides a high-level view of the lesson/unit/course to be
studied and the connections between its various components.
Students can also use lesson maps in class to take notes.
How to use it
Step 1: In the middle of the map, write the topic (ie the name of the lesson
or unit)
Step 2: Brainstorm ideas and related information. Write them on the

branches coming from the center. Be sure to place them in a way that
makes sense to teach, or in a logical sequence around the center.
Step 3: Add connectors between these elements and add labels to
highlight the kind of relationship between them.
Timeline graphic organizer
a timeline diagram shows a series of events in time order.
They are helpful for showing the significant historical events that
took place within a particular period, as well as crucial information
like the dates and locations where they occurred.
Additionally, timeline charts can be used to demonstrate changes

or development (such as the expansion of a corporation).
How to use it
Step 1: Describe the different events and the order in which they
happened.
Step 3: Include important information such as dates, locations and any

other relevant details as required.
Hierarchical diagrams show the components of a system, organization, or concept from the highest to
the lowest level. This tool can help students understand the superordinate and subordinate categories
of a topic as well as their relationships.
Identify the key component of the subject you are studying
A second layer of supporting parts should be listed that builds on the first component you discovered
Connect them with lines to show how they are interconnected.

Venn diagram
A Venn diagram is another type of graphic organizer that allows you to visually compare the
differences and similarities between two subjects. It differs from a double bubble map in that it allows
more than two topics and one common area to be included.
At the top of each circle, list the items being compared.
Note the differences or distinctive features within your own sector and avoid overlap.
Describe the similarities

T chart
T diagrams allow students to explore two sides of a subject. For example, advantages and
disadvantages, differences and similarities, etc.
The two topics you want to brainstorm about should be listed at the header of each column of
the T-chart you have drawn.
As you brainstorm, record the facts in each column.

Concept map
A concept map demonstrates the connection between the main idea and the supporting details.
Concepts or ideas are shown as circles or boxes, and arrows connect them to similar concepts.
As you read the selected text, note the main ideas or concepts discussed.
Categorize the concepts.
Use lines or arrows to show connections between ideas, a specific category, and/or main concept on the
map. To avoid confusion, keep the amount of information on the map to a minimum.
Flowchart
A flowchart is a diagram that shows the individual steps of a process in their correct order. It is a
general tool that can be adapted for a wide range of uses and used to define a variety of processes,
including a project plan, an administrative or service process, or a manufacturing process.
Identify tasks
Compile the necessary information:
Double-check the process
Create the flowchart

Cluster diagram
Cluster diagrams can be used to structure idea development, aid in brainstorming sessions, and
even aid in topic exploration.
Choose a subject you are interested in researching. It belongs to the center of the diagram.
Create subtopics related to this main subject using a brainstorming exercise. Put them all
around the center.
Each of the sub-topics should be brainstormed and related ideas should be written down.
Add as many levels as you want. However, use color coding to highlight each school of thought.
This will make the cluster diagram easier to read and understand.
Cause and effect graphic organizer
This style of graphic organizer shows the cause and effect of an event. The reason something
happened is known as a cause and the result is known as an effect. Visualization makes it easier to
understand various cause and effect relationships.
Determine the causes and consequences of the issue you are researching or writing about using
a cause-and-effect graphic organizer. There are various models of cause-and-effect events, such as one
cause producing one or more effects, multiple causes producing one or more effects, and so on.
Sequence Chart
A tool that helps in visualizing process flow, timeline of events, etc. It can also be used to write
essays, organize lessons and take notes.
Describe each stage of the process or event.
Put these actions in the correct order using a sequence chart.
