Using Graphic Organizers
Graphic organizers are visual tools or diagrams that can help you organize information and make connections or see patterns. These tools can be adapted to suit your purpose and style. Concept mapping will help you analyze a problem or situation and provide you with more information to make a decision or to represent information visually.
