A Structured Overview is exactly that - an overview of a topic organised in
a structured, hierarchical, graphic manner.
- Start with the topic/sub topic heading at the top of the page.
- Determine how many subheadings are going to form the next layer down and
organise them across the page.
- Link the heading to each subheading with a line.
- Determine how many sub-sub headings or key terms each sub heading requires
and organise them across the page.
- Link each sub heading to its set of terms with a lighter/thinner line.
A Structured Overview is a form of Concept
Map. It may be more appropriate to use a concept map rather than a structured
overview when organising the results of students' brainstorming.
