Oliver has been using graphic organisers for five decades, wrote a clutch of books about their use in school 20 years ago, and since then has been training teachers in their use.
David hopes that Organise Ideas serves to give teachers confidence and the knowledge to use graphic organisers..
Whilst David has used graphic organisers in his teaching for many years, it is only more recently -- charged by the cognitive science movement -- that he has unearthed their full potential.
He has previously spotlighted in books written by Kate Jones and illustrated a series of graphic organisers, which appear in Michael Chiles\'s The Feedback Pendulum.
David is the head of year 10 and 11 and a geography teacher at a school in Lincolnshire.
His biggest project is his collaboration with Tom Sherrington on the Teaching WalkThru books and online resources.
More recently, he has specialised in visualising educational ideas and processes, as well as illustrating books for leading educationalists such as professor Paul Kirschner and the Learning Scientists.
For a decade he was a headteacher of a special school.
