  • Successful teachers know how useful graphic organizers are in every subject. Now you can edit your graphic organizers before you print them out! This is a great tool for creating example worksheets for your class; you can fill out an entire graphic organizer to use as an example or answer key, or you can just fill in a few of the blanks to get your students started. Or, have your students fill out each graphic organizer on their own computer, making unreadable handwriting a problem of the past. Feel free to customize these printable graphic organizers to fit your needs and your classroom instruction.

  • KnowledgeWorks Foundation and the Institute for the Future (IFTF) are pleased to present the 2006-2016 Map of Future Forces Affecting Education. Created by a range of experts and analysts, the map is a forecast of the future, and each element on the map represents forces that could affect learning in the next decade. Many of these forces can work in tandem, and they could also appear seemingly unconnected. Nothing is definite. We don’t encourage debating with the forecast, but rather encourage you to explore the map, think about what you’ve seen, and use the map and its interactive features for group and online discussion. Think of the map as a catalyst for conversation.
