This study investigated the effect of graphic organizers on the academic achievement of ninth-grade chemistry students (N = 22). Data was collected on their ability to design and use concept maps, mind maps, Vee diagrams, and Venn diagrams. The results showed that there was a positive correlation between the use of graphic organizers and students' test scores. The findings also revealed that the students were more engaged and took greater responsibility for their learning in the post-mapping period.
