Good day learners! Welcome to “Reading and Writing.” This subject will usher you
toward developing your reading and writing skills, which can be applied to a wide range of
disciplines.
For our maiden voyage in this subject, we will learn about the techniques in selecting
and organizing information.
Selecting and organizing information are essential skills that senior high school students
like you must possess. You have to learn how to gather information since your teachers in all
subjects will require you to research certain topics or generate ideas using different materials.
Hence, important points must not be left out when dealing with any material at hand. There are
techniques in selecting and organizing information that includes brainstorming lists, graphic
organizers, outlines, etc.
In this module, you are expected to;
a. Apply the techniques in selecting and organizing information
What I Know
Directions: Below are descriptions of the different techniques in organizing information.
Identify which technique is being described in each item by writing “A” for
Brainstorming, “B’ for Outline, “C” for Venn Diagram, “D” for Concept Map, and
“E” for Bubble Organizer on your answer sheet.
1. ______________ is one way of generating ideas by listing of ideas spontaneously.
It can be done individually or as a group. Through this, you can come up with new
ideas and solve problems.
2. _______________ is another way of organizing information. It organizes materials
hierarchically and sequentially by classifying the main topics, subtopics, and
supporting details. Use “Roman Numerals” for the top-level, ‘capital letters’ in the
alphabet for the next level, ‘Arabic Numerals’ for the next level, and then
‘lowercase letters’ for the next level. Each numeral or letter is followed by a period,
and each item is capitalized.
What I Need to Know

3. ________________ is used when you compare and contrast things; it helps to
visualize similarities and differences.
4. To create a _____________, write your topic in the middle of the page, then jot
down different ideas, points, or facts that are related to or support your topic.
5. _______________ are particularly helpful for visual learners as they allow writers
to map out ideas spatially.
Lesson
1 TECHNIQUES IN SELECTING
AND ORGANIZING
INFORMATION
There is a need to select and organize information as these are essential skills that
senior high school students like you must possess. You’ve got to learn how to gather
information since your teachers in all subjects will require you to research certain topics or
generate ideas using different materials. Important points must not be left out when dealing
with any material at hand; there are techniques in selecting and organizing information. These
include using a brainstorming list, graphic organizers, and outlines, etc.
Brainstorming is one way of generating ideas by listing of ideas spontaneously. It
can be done individually or as a group. Through brainstorming, you can develop new ideas
and solve problems; think of it as a free association. Listing is a brainstorming technique. It
means writing down anything that comes to your mind about the topic.
Graphic Organizers such as concept maps and mind maps are important and effective
ways for organizing content and ideas. Since the graphic organizer is a visual display, it
demonstrates relationships between facts, concepts, or ideas. It guides your thinking as you fill
in a visual map or diagram. There are four basic graphic organizers: an outline, Venn diagram,
hierarchical topical organizer, and bubble organizer.
3
A Venn diagram is used when you compare and contrast things; it helps to visualize
similarities and differences. Connected organizational charts and bubble graphs are
particularly helpful for visual learners as they allow writers to map out ideas spatially. To create
a concept map, write your topic in the middle of the page, then jot down different ideas, points,
or facts related to or support your topic.
An Outline is another way of organizing information. It organizes materials
hierarchically and sequentially by classifying the main topics, subtopics, and supporting
details. Use “Roman Numerals” for the top-level, ‘capital letters’ in the alphabet for the next
level, ‘Arabic Numerals’ for the next level, and then ‘lowercase letters’ for the next level.
Each numeral or letter is followed by a period, and each item is capitalized.
There are two general types of outlines-the sentence outline and the topic outline. The
sentence outline is done by using sentences, while the topic outline uses words or phrases.
What’s In
Directions: From the information provided above about selecting and organizing
information, answer the following questions precisely. Write your answer on
another sheet of paper.

you will encounter subjects that will demand you to collect and organize
information efficiently. Hence, learning the techniques to employ is a must.
As discussed earlier, these are some of the techniques you can use when selecting
and organizing information:
1. Brainstorming 2. Graphic Organizers 3. Venn Diagram
4. Concept Map 5. Bubble Graphs 6. Outlines
What’s More

Activity 2: Identification
Directions: Below are situations about the different techniques in organizing information.
Identify which technique is being described in each item by writing “A” for
Brainstorming, “B’ for Outline, “C” for Venn Diagram, “D” for Concept Map, and
“E” for Bubble Organizer on another sheet of paper.
_______1. Teacher Joy asks you to generate ideas by giving a list of ideas about the given
topic.
_______2. You are tasked to compare the similarities and differences between public and
private schools.

down different ideas and sub-ideas.
_______5. This way of organizing information uses Roman Numerals for the main topic.
Activity 3: True or False Directions: Write “True” if the statement about the techniques in selecting and organizing
information is correct and write “False” if it is not. Write your answer on your English
notebook.
1. Brainstorming can be done individually or as a group. Through this, you can come
up with new ideas and solve problems.
2. Outlining is another way of organizing information. It organizes materials

supporting details. Use “Roman Numerals” for the top-level, ‘capital letters’ in the
alphabet for the next level, ‘Arabic Numerals’ for the next level, and then
‘lowercase letters’ for the next level. Each numeral or letter is followed by a period,
and each item is capitalized.

What I Have Learned
We all get frustrated whenever we misplace our belongings and looking
for them is a time and energy-consuming effort that could have been
avoided simply by being more organized. What happens if they are not
personal belongings, what if we would talk about your work emails,
presentation files or quarterly reports? The consequences of this lack of
organization would be catastrophic not only for you but for the entire
company.
How to avoid this type of hardship? The solution might seem obvious, yet
often gets overlooked: organizing information.
Its advantages are various and the top 5 most relevant benefits are:

Techniques in selecting and organizing information.
1. Brainstorming list (listing)-listing possible topics and then sub listing what you
could say about the topic.
2. Graphic organizers (Venn diagram, hierarchical topical organizer, and bubble
organizer) are visual displays demonstrating relationships between/among facts,
concepts, or ideas.
3. An outline is a tool used to organize written ideas about a topic into a logical order.
Outlines arrange major topics, subtopics, and supporting details.
There are two types of outline: Topic outline and Sentence outline
