The Impact of Using Story Maps as Graphic Organizers on Development of Vocabulary Learning of EFL Learners

[...]the use of graphic organizers make the students retrieve the information obtained quite easily, which will support and enhance learning. [...]the role of EFL learners has changed from merely the receivers of concepts and information to the creators of visual organizers representing their own thinking processes. [...]the tobserved value was greater than the t-critical value meaning that there was a statistically significant difference between the performances of the two groups and subjects, who received vocabulary instruction through cooperative tasks, outperformed the control group. [...]in the experimental group learners need to understand the story more deeply in order to be able to fill in the organizer. [...]as the results of this study showed, greater amount of incidental learning of vocabulary occurred in the learners in the experimental group.
