Prepared by Tracey Hall & Nicole Strangman Introduction One way to help make a curriculum more supportive of students and teachers is to incorporate graphic organizers. Graphic organizers come in many varieties and have been widely researched for their effectiveness in improving learning outcomes for various students. The following five sections present a definition of graphic organizers, a sampling of different types and their applications, a discussion of the research evidence for their effectiveness, useful Web resources, and a list of referenced research articles. We have focused this overview on applications of graphic organizers to reading instruction, with the intention of later expanding the discussion into other subject areas.

Educational Technology

Faculty and students in the School of Teaching and Learning (STL) at the University of Florida generate, apply, and disseminate knowledge about enduring issues in education—such as improving student achievement in high poverty schools and meeting critical teacher shortages. Teacher preparation programs in Unified Elementary Education and Secondary Education culminate in the Master of Education degree and state certification to teach. An online job-embedded master’s degree program in conjunction with the College of Education’s Lastinger Center for Learning focuses on developing Master Teachers. Doctoral degrees (Ph.D. or Ed.D.) in Curriculum and Instruction align with one of 10 specialization areas .
