Summary

Research confirms that the use of graphic organizers makes for more efficient reading and helps students "see" abstract content. Students who use graphic organizers create a storage area for information and organize their ideas before, during, and after they read. As information is placed on an organizer, it is processed, analyzed, evaluated, and connected to other information.
