This book was released on 2007 with total page 81 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The students in my social studies class had difficulty comprehending information from textbooks and other nonfiction reading. Graphic organizers, a general teaching tool that visual or spatial representations of the text, have been identified as tools to aid comprehension. The purpose of this study was to see if graphic organizers would improve the retention of information obtained from a social studies textbook. Graphic organizers were implemented in a sixth grade classroom over a seven week period during the fall of 2007 at Monticello Middle School. Three different types of graphic organizers were implemented in a sixth grade social studies unit on the Stone Ages and early cultures. The study consisted of two sixth grade classes, each with 23 students. One class received the treatment of the graphic organizers and the other class did not. The research administered in initial survey and a pretest to rate the students' knowledge of graphic organizers and the unit topic. The students were taught how to use the graphic organizers through explicit, whole class instruction and were used in conjunction with the textbook. A multiple-choice posttest and survey were given and results were compared between the two classes. Results indicated a significant increase in the comprehension of the text of the students involved in the treatment group.

Download or read book Effects of Using Graphic Organizers on the Attitudes and Classroom Environments of Elementary Science Students written by Mercy Macdowell and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study investigated the learning environment among elementary school science students. In particular, it investigated the effects of using a teacher-made graphic organizer on the learning environment and attitudes to science among fourth grade students. I designed the graphic organizer PRIDE, whose design was based on the principles of CRISS (Santa, Havens, & Maycumber, 1996), a research-based reading program created to enhance reading comprehension skills. Furthermore, associations between student outcomes (attitudes toward science) and the nature of the classroom leaning environment were explored. A historical look at the field of learning environments over the past few decades shows that a striking feature is the availability of a variety of economical, valid and widely-applicable questionnaires for assessing students' perceptions of the classroom environments (Fraser, 1998b). My study involved modification of a classroom environment questionnaire, WIHIC (What Is Happening In this Class'?), and an attitudinal survey. TOSRA (Test of Science Related Attitudes). The modified instruments were field tested among 860 students in Grades 4-6 in order to determine their validity and reliability. Qualitative methods involving student interviews were used in modifying the instruments prior to field testing. The significance of this study is that it adds to existing knowledge in the field of learning environments and encourages further research in this field in early childhood settings. The research also adds to the existing research conducted using graphic organizers. In addition, the design of an original graphic organizer makes available to practitioners an innovative tool to assist students to improve their science learning. The study also promotes action research and professional development among educators within their classroom setting in an attempt to improve their classroom learning environment.
