Unreferenced date November 2009 Graphic organizers are visual representations of knowledge, concepts, thoughts, or ideas. Graphic Organizers historically have been organized bits of data in easy to understand formats, such as charts, tables, and graphs. In the twentieth century, due to developing technologies in printing, the use of graphic organizers grew substantially. Additionally, graphic organizers entered the realm of education in the late twentieth century as ways of helping students to organize their thoughts as a sort of pre writing exercise . For example, a student is asked, What were the causes of the French Revolution? The student places the question in the middle of a sheet of paper. Branching off of this, the student jots down her ideas, such as poor harvests, unfairness of the Old Regime, etc. Branching off of these are more of the student s thoughts, such as the nobles paid no taxes branching from unfairness of the Old Regime. This concept map thus graphically organizes the student s ideas and knowledge, while serving as the basis of the student s essay answer.

File Jotto Sheet.svg thumb Jotto Sheet Jotto sometimes Giotto IPA D iotto is a logic oriented word game played with two players, a writing implement, and a piece of paper. Each player picks a secret word of five letters that is in the dictionary, generally no proper nouns are allowed, and generally consisting of all different letters , and the object of the game is to correctly guess the other player s word first. Players take turns guessing and giving the number of Jots, or the number of letters that are in both the guessed word and the secret word. The positions of the letters don t matter for example, if the secret word is OTHER and a player guesses PEACH, he gets a reply of 2 for the E and the H, even though they re in the wrong positions . Using a written out alphabet, players cross out letters that are eliminated with Jot counts of 0 and other logical deductions. History Jotto was invented in 1955 by Morton M. Rosenfeld and marketed by his New York based Jotto Corp. In the 1970s, copyright passed to the Selchow and Righter Company. It is now made by Endless Games . Variations The most common variation uses words of four letters instead of five. Players should agree before playing if secret words can contain duplicate letters. Six Letter sometimes called Word Master Mind , though its logical content places it well beyond Mastermind board game Master Mind and Jotto . Known to have been played with pencil and paper in United Kingdom UK computer departments at least as far back as 1970. Each player picks a secret word of 6 letters, and they take turns guessing the other s word. Secret words sometimes called targets and guesses, must all be real words verifiable in a nominated dictionary. When you guess a word, you find out the number of letters which are perfect matches only. So if you guess PEACHY and the secret word was OTHERS, you get a reply of 0 because the E and H are in the wrong positions .
