Let's get Graphic!

My final searching for this Blog involved looking up a range of graphic organisers to compare to the Kuhlthau Model. I like the basic nature of this graphic organiser for primary aged students and how the questions are set out. I would use the idea of this organiser with the students, however I would add questions about relfection, thoughts and feelings, to combine those aspect of Kuhlthau's model. It is the reflection component that is taking out-dated research models into 21st century learning.


This diagram displays the importance of the balance between lecturing the learners versus them teaching each other and practicing their learning by actually doing. It gives a clear visual to teachers about the retention rate of learners and therefore we are required to adapt out teaching and learning methods to accommodate this. Love this visual!
