Using the SmartArt Organization Chart to Create a Graphic Organizer

Abstract

First paragraph: One way to increase understanding and develop problem solving skills in your mathematics class is to develop lessons that appeal to the visual learner. You can accomplish this by inserting graphic organizers when preparing worksheets and cooperative learning activities. A graphic organizer can help your students tackle difficult concepts by providing a visual tool to help arrange key ideas and definitions, organize categories, or analyze mathematical processes. By helping students present what they know visually, you can increase student interest and motivation while promoting conceptual understanding in your classroom.
