Graphic Intelligence: Playing with Possibilities
Objective for this session… Extend our understanding of and ability to apply graphic organizers: Ranking Ladders, Venn Diagrams, Fish Bone Diagrams, Mind Mapping and Concept Mapping. In addition, to sense how to integrate multiple graphic organizers
Agenda Sequence • Instructional Intelligence • Thinking • Concept Formation • Questioning – a practice • Graphic Organizers
Overview of Instructional Intelligence • Instructional intelligence involves: • Knowledge of the learner • Knowledge of curriculum • Knowledge of assessment • Knowledge of instruction • Knowledge of change • Knowledge of systemic change
Instruction Classified • Instructional Concepts (can’t do, guide decisions) • Instructional Skills (simplest, least powerful) • Instructional Tactics (mid power) • Instructional Strategies (most powerful) • Instructional Organizers (can’t do – guide thinking)
Instructional Concepts (only) • Safety • Interest • Novelty • Challenging • Accountability • Variety • Success • Authentic
Instructional Skills – Minimum Power • Sharing the Objective and Purpose • Framing Questions • Wait Time • Suspending Judgment • Probing for Clarification • Attentive Listening
Instructional Tactics – Medium Power • Venn Diagram • Think Pair Share • Place Mat • Word Web • Ranking Ladders • Flow Charts • Four Corners • PMI
Instructional Strategies – Maximum Power • Mind Map • Jigsaw • Concept Attainment • Academic Controversy • Concept Maps • Teams Games Tournaments • PWIM
Instructional Organizers • Multiple Intelligence • Learning Styles • Gender • Autism • Brain Research • Child Development • Emotional Intelligence
Graphic Organizers Classified • Instructional Tactics Venn Diagrams, Flow Charts, Word Webs, Fish Bone Diagrams, Ranking Ladder • Instructional Strategies Mind Maps, Concept Maps Key here is to integrate/layer them.
Control Group Mean
Prerequisite A deep understanding of all aspects of thinking.
This includes • Understanding LEVELS of thinking • Understanding TYPES of thinking • Understanding Inductive/Deductive thinking • Understanding Inference and Prediction
You need to understand ‘types’ of thinking and ‘levels’ of thinking • Types of Thinking • Inductive • Deductive • Ranking • Predicting • Sequence • Inquiry • Prioritizing • Identify • Levels of Thinking • Synthesis • Evaluation • Analysis • Application • Comprehension • Recall
Levels of Thinking – Bloom’s • Synthesis • Evaluation • Analysis • Application • Comprehension • Recall
Inductive & Deductive Thinking Inductive Deductive Who took the cookie when you asked them not to touch them CSI Forensic Science Science Experiments I am thinking of something that is white. • Putting clothes away • Putting dishes away • Your closet • Periodic Table • Mind Mapping • Venn Diagram • Concept Mapping • Fish Bone Diagrams
Graphic Organizers that are Inductive • Venn Diagrams • Fish Bone Diagrams • Cluster Maps • Thematic Maps • Mind Maps • Concept Maps
Concept Attainment Prediction/Inference Elementary School
Directions • Focus on a type of thinking; the EVEN numbered examples represent one type of thinking; the ODD numbers represent another type of thinking. Don’t focus on the topic or the answer, that is not important.
Data Set • The snow is melting so kids will be jumping in puddles at recess. • Those people must be poor because their house is so run-down. • I did not finish my work so I think the teacher will make me finish it at recess. • My friend has an IPOD and an I Phone so her family must be rich.
Data Set • He stayed up all night studying for a test so he must be tired right now. • It’s been raining all weekend. I bet I will have to wear boots to school on Monday. 7. He hides his glasses before every Math class so he does not have to do the math test. I think he does not like math. • It will probably rain today because there are a lot of dark clouds.
Testers • John runs 3 kilometres every day; he must really like running. B. Our volleyball team won the last 5 games, they must be pretty good volleyball players. C. I never finished my reading. I’ll probably have to stay after school. D. Maria studies hard for spelling tests; I bet she gets 100 percent again on the next text.
So in terms of Curriculum the teacher must… • Understand objectives • Understand what level of thinking is explicit - the level the student will be assessed at • Understand what level of thinking is implicit - the level you have to teach at • Understand what type of thinking is required • Match that knowledge to instructional methods • Assess meaningfully
One component of “Knowledge of Instruction” is … Graphic Organizers
What do you already know? With a partner, take about two minutes and identify all the graphic organizers you have seen and hopefully experienced.
Compare your list with this list - and there are many more. Fish Bone, Concept Map, Mind Map, Flow Chart, Time Line, Word Web, Venn Diagram, Ranking Ladder etc.
Ranking Ladder • identify your top 3 places to visit • rank them from first to last to visit • identify what is missing from your ranking ladder • how do you get students to develop the skills to identify criteria for ranking?
PMI • What are the PLUSES, MINUSES and IMPORTANT things to consider about Supply Teaching. • How does PMI assist students to more precisely/thoughtfully rank ideas.
Ranking Graphic Organizers According to their Complexity • Please rank the graphic organizers below using a Ranking Ladder. Fish Bone, Concept Map, Mind Map, Flow Chart, Time Line, Word Web, Venn Diagram, Ranking Ladder
One Perspective • Concept Map • Mind Map • Fish Bone • Venn Diagram • Ranking Ladder • Time Line • Flow Chart • Word Web
What type of thinking and level of thinking do Mind Maps and Concept Maps Invoke?
‘TYPES’ of thinking and‘LEVELS’ of thinking Types of Thinking • Inductive • Deductive • Ranking • Predicting • Sequence • Inquiry • Prioritizing Levels of Thinking • Synthesis • Evaluation • Analysis • Application • Comprehension • Recall
GIVEN • Concept Maps and Mind Maps (if done properly) ask students to first identify what they know and then classify that knowledge into categories -- therefore -- it must be analysis re levels of thinking and inductive thinking regarding types of thinking.
So what is the Type and Level of Thinking? • Venn Diagram • Fish Bone Diagram • Ranking Ladder
Mind Map/Concept Maps DIRECTIONS: • Clear off tables • Analyze Mind Maps or Concept Maps • Identify the critical attributes of MM or CM • Create Venn Diagram • Compare with another table • Share with larger group • Listen to mini-lecture/group discussion

2 Dimensional and 3 Dimensional Shapes: What do they have in common? 2 Dimensional 3 Dimensional
Venn Diagram Mind Map Concept Map Start in centre Radiate out Colour Pictures Start at top Linking words on line Hierarchical Cross Links
Mind Maps Concept Maps Mind Maps • Start in the centre • Radiate out hierarchically • Key words (concepts) • Images • Colour • Cross Links (no words on any lines that show relationships) Concept Maps • Usually start at the top • Radiates down/out hierarchically • Key words (concepts) • Linking words • Cross links with words that show relationships (usually a verb or verb phrase)
