This website offers many study techniques that involve graphs. You can plug in the information and it will help set up what kind of graph you want to put the information in. There are flow charts, network diagrams, wireframes, website maps, organization charts, venn diagrams, and technical drawings are a few examples of what this website offers. The advantages of this website are that you have many options to choose from. There are many different templates that you can pick from. A disadvantage is that once you choose a particular template you have to stay with that one and follow the organization of the chart. You can choose different colors to have visual aids and get the children involved. This website does not contain any appropriate content for the children and they should not have a problem with worrying about pulling something up by accident. This resource is based solely on graphs and students can use it for studying techniques. This website would be very helpful in studying multiple things from one chapter that could be organized in a graph.  3. [|Gliffy flow chart]  4. A description of how this tool could be used: This tool could be used to create graphs of any kind that would organize material and make it easier to understand. The students could use this resource as a tool for studying and could help them remember things better. There are many different types of graphs to choose from so that gives the students a chance to pick one that would organize the information better for them. The students would need the computer to organize the graphs but everything else they could do on their own by getting the information together before putting it into the graph.   1.This particular tool can be used by a teacher wanting to show the students what he/she expects for the year. The teacher could plug in the information very easily and without taking a lot of time. The template is already set up so you would just put the information in. The teacher could put the class rubric in the graph, the syllabus, classroom rules, dress code, or even consequences of not obeying the rules. The teacher could also incorporate goals into this particular flow chart.   Authentic Instruction:  ▪ is allowing students to take charge of their learning while still providing them with guidelines.  ▪ provides a challenge while making it possible to learn new technology.  ▪ helps students learn skills that can be used in the real world  2.
