Advance Organizer Model is given by David P. Ausubel who is one of the educational psychologist. Advanced organizer is a conceptual bridge between new material and a students’ current knowledge. It discuss on three concerns. It also discuss on teachers role, learners role, material role

2. DAVID AUSUBEL
David Paul Ausubel
(October 25, 1918 – July 9, 2008)
He was an American psychologist.
His most significant contribution to the fields of
educational psychology, cognitive science, and
science education learning was on the development
and research on "advance organizers"

3. introduction
• Advance Organizer Model is given by David P. Ausubel
who is one of the educational psychologist.
• This model facilitates meaningful verbal learning.
• Rote memory is not considered meaningful learning since
memorization omits the connection of new knowledge
with existing knowledge.
• Meaningful learning is possible only if the students’
minds are prepared to receive and process
information.
• If their minds are not prepared, the students must fall
back to learning by rote memory.

4. Advanced Organizers
• Advanced organizer is a conceptual bridge
between new material and a students’
current knowledge.
• These are simple devices used in the
introduction of a topic which enable learners
to orient themselves to the topic, so that they
can locate where any particular bit of input
fits in and how it links with what they already
known.

5. three concerns
• (a) How knowledge (curriculum content)
is organized;
• (b) How the mind works to process new
information (learning); and
• (c) How teacher can apply these ideas
about curriculum and learning when they
present new material to students
(instruction).

6. TEACHER ROLE
In this model teacher plays the
role of organizer of subject
matter and presents information
through lectures, readings and
providing tasks to the learner to
integrate what has been learned.
14-06-2022 Dr. C. BEULAH JAYARANI 6

7. LEARNERS ROLE
 In this approach, teacher is
responsible for organizing and
presenting what is to be learned.
 The learner’s primary role is to
master ideas and information.
 The Advance Organizers provide
concepts and principles to the
students directly.
14-06-2022 Dr. C. BEULAH JAYARANI 7

8. According to Ausubel whether the
material is meaningful or not, depends
more on the preparation of the learner
and on the organization of the material
than it does on the method of
presentation.

MATERIAL ROLE

9. • (a) Focus: The main purpose of this
model is to facilitate meaningful verbal
learning and retention.
• It has two aspects, i.e.,
i) The development of suitable
teaching strategies to increase the
clarity and stability of learning
ii) To facilitate a critical approach of
the ideas in the cognitive structure.

COMPONENTS OF ADVANCE ORGANIZER MODEL

10. B) Syntax: three phases of activity
PHASE OUTLINE ACTIVITY
Phase I PRESENTATION OF THE
ADVANCED ORGANISER
 Clarification of the lesson by the teacher
 Presentation of advanced organizer by the teacher
 Teacher helps the learners to become aware of the advance organizer and also
helps the learner to be familiar with the advanced organizer.
Phase II Presentation of learning task
or material
 The teacher presents new information to the learners
 The teacher helps all the students to understand the logical order of the
information
 Students link the information to the advance organizer
Phase III Strengthening of Cognitive
Organisation
 Students use the principles of integrative reconciliation for strengthening their cognitive
organization
 The teacher promotes active reception learning
 Clarification of students’ ideas by the teacher
 The teacher applies students’ ideas actively
14-06-2022 Dr. C. BEULAH JAYARANI 10

11. (C) Social System:
• In Advance Organizer Model the
teacher retains control of the
intellectual structure, to relate the
learning material to the organizers
and to help students differentiate
new material from previously leads
to the successful acquisition of
material.
14-06-2022 Dr. C. BEULAH JAYARANI 11

12. (D) Principles of Reaction
• Negotiation of meaning and responses
between the teacher and the learner clarifies
the meaning of the new learning material with
existing knowledge of the students.
• Mutual interaction between teacher and learner
responsively connect organizers and learning
material
14-06-2022 Dr. C. BEULAH JAYARANI 12

13. (E) Support System
•The effectiveness of the advance
organizer depends on an integral and
appropriate relationship between the
conceptual organizer and the content.
•This model provides guidelines for
recognizing structural materials.
14-06-2022 Dr. C. BEULAH JAYARANI 13

14. (F) Instructional and Nurturant Effects
•The instrumental values of this
model are – the ideas themselves
that are used as the organizer
are learned, as well as
information presented to the
students
14-06-2022 Dr. C. BEULAH JAYARANI 14

15. Application of Model
1. Abstract subjects can be easily taught by this model.
2. Cognitive aims can be achieved by this model. Selection, organization,
presentation and expression can be achieved.
3. The concept of socialization can be drawn in the study of socialization
patterns in different cultures. This advance organizer thus aids in expanding
students’ knowledge about cultures

a) Selection B) organization C) Presentation d) Expression

16. CONTD.,
• 4. It can also be shaped to teach the skill of effective reception learning. Critical
thinking and cognitive reorganization can be explained to the learners, who receive
direct instruction in orderly thinking and in the notion of knowledge hierarchies.
• 5. This model is considered good and used widely in school. When we present the subject
in organized way, student gets all matter in systematic order. In less time, more
knowledge can be given.
• 6. The instructional effect of this model is that the ability to learn from reading,
lectures, and other media is used. Presentation is another effect, as an interest in
inquiry and precise habits of thing.
