Don’t start with a blank page – try using a graphic organizer instead.The article you plan to write is probably an informative one, giving your reader relevant facts about your idea, product, service or company. All you have to do is organize your information in such a way that the article develops naturally and without any conscious effort on your part.
This is where a graphic organizer can help you.
What is a graphic organizer? Despite the technical-sounding name, you probably use one every day – your calendar! Your calendar is a set of boxes by which you ‘organize’ your daily life. Now, supposing you had a graphic organizer to ‘organize’ the way you write your articles? How much easier would that be?
Just like your calendar, graphic organizers can be paper-based or computer-based.
Whiteboard software gives you amazing flexibility when you’re preparing your articles. The graphic organizer layout acts as a background and, over the top of that, you add snippets of text, images or even movies to the ‘board’ to build up all the relevant information. Then, you can move them all around, just like Post-It notes, to organize your ideas.
