With this activity, you provide clear information at the beginning of a new educational program to which new subject matter can be attached. It answers questions like ‘Where do we come from? Where are we going? What are the connections between these and previous lessons?’ Advance organizers thus attract attention, create expectations, activate prior knowledge, and give direction to the further learning process.
• Tell a story, show a video, or create a visual overview (e.g., flowchart) of what will be covered in the educational program. • Indicate in the chart where the new subject matter connects to the material they already know. • Revisit this frequently in the lesson and continually point out what the students already know and what they do not yet know.

The educational program must be made clear by the teacher.
