Strategies to Teach Social Studies 15) Using Graphic Organizers You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make it drink. You can also set up wonderful learning activities, but you can't make students think. This frustrating fact perplexes teachers. It sometimes leads us to think that some students are uncaring because they don't participate in classroom experiences in the ways we want them to. This may be because these students have poor thinking skills. They simply do not have the strategies to help them process information and construct knowledge that we take for granted. It is up to us to provide students with these strategies. One very fruitful strategy is the use of graphic organizers. Known by a variety of names (concept maps, webs, thinking maps, mind maps), these are simply tools to help students organize their thinking. Here are a few generic examples with some suggestions concerning how you can use them with students. The goal is for teachers to use these tools frequently enough so that students use them automatically. The use of graphic organizers is a helpful addition to any student's repertoire of thinking/learning strategies. Decision-Making The two diagrams, Figures 1 and 2, are examples of decision making graphic organizers. Four steps are used in the first organizer, Figure 1.

Methods for Social Studies How Do I Keep My Ideals and Still Teach? Rich Gibson 2000 Renaissance Community Press http://www.pipeline.com/~rgibson (If you are an educator reading this, and planning to loot the material here, good for you! All I ask in return, if you have time, is that you email me a tactic that you have developed so I can show it to my students, and, should you have time to remember, please cite this www page.) Table of Contents Imagine yourself as a literacy educator. Your task is to teach adults how to teach other people how to read. A young man, twentyish, comes to you and asks that you assist him in learning some methods of reading instruction. You ask, "Why do you care if others can read?" "Well, it seems like a good thing, to read you know, and I do need a job." "Fair enough. A job is important. But why should it be this job? Why care if people can read?" "Well, if people can read, they can learn." "But what will they learn?" "To get a job." "So your job will be to teach people to read to get a job?" "Yes, but there is more of course. They will be smarter. They will be able to understand and enjoy more."

Myers, co-chair Susan Adler, co-chair Allan Brandhorst, co-chair Alberta Macke Dougan Wayne Dumas Lewis Huffman Pat Rossman Donald O. Schneider Robert J. Stahl The National Standards for Social Studies Teachers were developed by a task force of National Council for the Social Studies and approved by the NCSS Board of Directors in April, 1997. The NCSS National Standards for Social Studies Teachers document, which is an official publication of National Council for the Social Studies, describes and explains the council's national standards for social studies teachers that were approved by the NCSS Board of Directors on April 27, 1997. The publication consists of two general sections: (1) an introduction, which contains information about the background and contexts in which the standards were developed, and a description of the audience to which the standards are addressed; and (2) the standards themselves. The standards are of two types (1) Subject Matter Standards, which outline in some detail the social studies content that social studies teachers should know and the skills and dispositions they should possess in order to teach social studies to students appropriately, and (2) Pedagogical Standards, which outline in very general ways the pedagogical knowledge, skills, and dispositions needed for general teacher effectiveness.
