This is a set of math related graphic organizers that were included in a session at the St. Louis NCTM Conference. Departments other than math might find them helpful for generating ideas about using graphic organizers in class.
On a related note, why not give examples of similes and metaphors you use in class, or stories about connecting past learning to new learning?
Your colleagues are eager to hear about your experiences!

Remember that the Inspiration program in the Math/Science Lab is a concept mapping program. There are canned templates, or you can make your own. Better yet, have students create their own. Students pick up on how to use the program in just a few minutes. As a bonus, the user can switch between a concept map and an outline. This makes Inspiration a great pre-writing activity.
Here are the graphic organizers I have used with calculus. It is nice to have them hit ideas from graphs, numbers, algebra, and writing.
