Knowledge Organisers
A Knowledge Organiser (KO) sets out the important, useful and powerful knowledge on a topic on a single page. With the content demands of new courses, and Alsop High School adopting a dynamic knowledge rich curriculum, these are becoming increasingly popular.
For students to succeed in a particular area, they must have a foundation of factual knowledge, understand those facts in the context of a conceptual framework and organise knowledge in order to facilitate retrieval and application. We can see KOs as a way to enable this, in a much more systematic way than traditional revision guides and textbooks.
