Elusive Visualizations
نویسنده
چکیده
Visual media permeates and increasingly dominates Western culture. In nearly every area of our lives, at work and leisure, in everything from movies and computer operating systems to television programs and magazine ads, we are bombarded with images and symbols. Even the imaging methods common in modern medical practice, the sonogram, MRI, and CAT scan, are familiar to us independent of direct experience with them.

Using drawings to support learning from dynamic visualizations
Dynamic visualizations can enhance science learning by making unseen processes visible. To study how drawing supports learning from visualizations, the drawing group illustrated their ideas after interacting with molecular visualizations and the interaction group had more time to explore the visualizations. The drawing group learned more and made more precise interpretations of the visualizatio...
متن کاملThe Role of Dynamic Visualizations and Spatial Layout of Static Visualizations for Learning How to Classify Locomotion Patterns
In two studies the effectiveness of dynamic and multiple static visualizations was investigated for a highly perceptual learning task, namely locomotion pattern classification. In Study 1a, seventy-five students viewed either dynamic, staticsequential, or static-simultaneous visualizations. For tasks with intermediate difficulty dynamic visualizations led to better recognition of the locomotion...
متن کاملVisualization approaches to support healthy aging: A systematic review
BACKGROUND Health technologies have the potential to support the growing number of older adults who are aging in place. Many tools include visualizations (data visualizations, visualizations of physical representations). However, the role of visualizations in supporting aging in place remains largely unexplored. OBJECTIVE To synthesize and identify gaps in the literature evaluating visualizat...
متن کاملVisAR: Bringing Interactivity to Static Data Visualizations through Augmented Reality
Static visualizations have analytic and expressive value. However, many interactive tasks cannot be completed using static visualizations. As datasets grow in size and complexity, static visualizations start losing their analytic and expressive power for interactive data exploration. Despite this limitation of static visualizations, there are still many cases where visualizations are limited to...
متن کاملDiagrams in the Mind and in the World: Relations between Internal and External Visualizations
Recent advances in computer technology and graphics have made it possible to produce powerful visualizations of scientific phenomena and more abstract information. There is currently much excitement about the potential of these computer visualizations, particularly in education and training in science,information. There is currently much excitement about the potential of these computer visualiz...
