Create a Graphic Organizer with ChatGPT

In ChatGPT or your favorite AI Chatbot, cut and paste the following prompts to create a graphic organizer like a T-chart or a Venn diagram. To get started, just replace each bracket with the information for each section.

T-chart

You are an expert educator and instructional designer. Create a T-chart for [comparative items] of [topic/subject]. Provide two versions: one blank and one with at least [number] items on each side.

T-chart Example Prompt

You are an expert educator and instructional designer. Create a T-chart for the strengths and weaknesses of the character Elizabeth Bennet in the novel Pride and Prejudice. Provide two versions: one blank and one with at least 7 items on each side.

Venn Diagram

You are an expert educator and instructional designer. Create a Venn diagram for my [subject] class. Make the left section [topic], the right section [second topic], and the overlapping section [shared topic]. Provide two versions: one blank and one with at least [number] items in each section.

Venn Diagram Example Prompt

You are an expert educator and instructional designer. Create a Venn diagram for my grammar class. Make the left section linking verbs, the right section helping verbs, and the overlapping section be verbs. Provide two versions: one blank and one with at least 2 verbs in each section.

Make the Prompt Work for You

• T-charts work as a student assignment, class activity, and a study aid. For the Pride and Prejudice example, students could work in small groups using ChatGPT in class. Some groups could create strengths/weaknesses for different main characters, and other groups could create causes/effects for key events in the novel.

• For the Venn diagram, ChatGPT does not generate images, so the result is not a true Venn diagram. Use this to your advantage - mix up the content and give the responses to your students. Have them create the actual diagram and determine which responses go where.
