A graphic organiser such as a mind map assists the student in organising material and making sense of the facts. Tuning in to the logical/mathematical, linguistic and spatial intelligences of the student group (Bochner, Duchesne and Krause, 2003, p 201), a mind map such as the one I have prepared, sets out simply and logically the important events and people in the life and times of Tiberius Gracchus. Some passages of history can be complicated, so maps such as these can help present information in a linear of organised fashion. This tool is also effective for essay planning or for just simply to get a good overview of what can be an avalanche of information.
