Conole and Fill learning taxonomy

Introduction

I am trying to visualize the learning(/pedagogy/technology) taxonomies that Graíne Conole et al. came up with. The taxonomy is somewhat provisional. I did throw it together from various Concole and Fill publications, PPT slides, the DialogPlus website, and a little amount of salt and pepper. One of my main contributions was to add "Toilet-learning" - obviously - since I plan to print out an A1 or A0 poster once I am happy and decorate one of the toilet doors at TECFA with it - Daniel K. Schneider 18:26, 25 May 2010 (UTC).

I then started adding desert and other stuff and will continue for a while. Once done, I only will keep the best example (whatever that will mean) - Daniel K. Schneider 21:52, 31 May 2010 (UTC)

To do list:

  • Add some missing ingredients (e.g. in the tools sections, instructional design models, scenario design patterns,etc.)
  • Rethink (maybe) the hierarchy
  • Remove some clouds (maybe) and/or produce multi-page graphs
  • Create both a most simple and most complex version of the input data
  • ....

See also

For visualization, I am using automatic layout mechanisms and various hierarchy schemes available through the Graphviz program.

How to use:

  • In this page, you only see so-called thumbnails
  • Click on the various pictures to enlarge and keep clicking until you will reach the *.SVG image (the original is A0 size, i.e. a rather big poster). Of course, you need a real web browser (e.g. Firefox, Opera, Safari ... it won't work with IE).
  • Printing: Go down to SVG pictures, then print to a PDF file (e.g. for A3 paper). Then print the PDF (my printer didn't want to print SVG). Also, since I am not yet happy with the results, I did not print a poster (but from PDF it should work just fine).

To create your own:

  • Below, there some graphviz source code (not necessarily the latest version)
  • Read the Graphviz article for more info about this infoviz software set ....

FDP layout

The input file is strongly clustered (as you can see with the boxes). Else you would see a haystack. This visualization is almost hierarchical. Some extra edges are the dotted lines starting from the tasks node.

Conole and Fill

A first attempt, inspired by various texts, PPTs etc.)

Learning taxonomy - take 1 - FDP layout engine - portrait

Conole and Fill + methods

Instructional design methods + desing tools thrown in ....

Learning taxonomy - take 2 - FDP layout engine - portrait

Conole and Fill + methods +

Instructional design methods + desing tools + more tools thrown in .... Settings (that produces this stretching effect). Fonts are very small (too small probably for a poster)

overlap="prism1000";
overlap_scaling=1.5;
Learning taxonomy - take 3 - FDP layout engine - portrait

Conole and Fill + methods + separated

This visualization removes all top-level edges (has several top-level nodes). Not the most pretty, but probably the most functional poster so far - 14:31, 28 May 2010 (UTC)

Learning taxonomy - take 3 - FDP layout engine - portrait

SFDP layout

These visualizations are hierarchical in principle and are good compromise between seeing the big picture and smaller clusters as well.

ratio = expand

A0 size portrait

Learning taxonomy - take 1 - SFDP layout engine - portrait

A0 size square

Learning taxonomy - take 1 - SFDP layout engine - square

A0 size landscape

Learning taxonomy - take 1 - SFDP layout engine - landscape

A0 size + spring

ratio = expand
smoothing="spring";

A0 size landscape:

Learning taxonomy - take 1 - SFDP layout engine - spring smoothing- landscape

A0 size landscape +

Extra ingredients added (design methods)

Learning taxonomy - take 2 - SFDP layout engine - landscape

A0 size landscape ++

Extra ingredients added (design methods + more tools). A more spread out visualisation (reduced overlap)

Settings:

overlap="prism1000";
overlap_scaling=1.5; 
repulsiveforce = 2;
nodesep=3;
quadtree ="none";
Learning taxonomy - take 2 - SFDP layout engine - landscape

A0 size ++ no root

Extra ingredients added (design methods + more tools). A more spread out visualisation (reduced overlap) without central root node. Fairly ergonomic probably. Also avoids the problem what stance to adopt with respect of attaching ingredients to either activity or task or both ...

Learning taxonomy - take 3 - SFDP layout engine - portrait

A0 size landscape ++

A quite good visualization. Splines, thicker lines between main nodes

Learning taxonomy - take 3.1 - SFDP layout engine - landscape

Neato layout

version 3 model

A very slow model to compute since the neato model is rather meant for small graphs (e.g. concept maps and other sorts of diagrams).

Parameters: click on the thumbnail

One of the best looking visualizations, but probably the most useless

Learning taxonomy - take 3 - Neato layout engine

version 3.1 model

A bit more useful (added more ellipses and landscape format)

Learning taxonomy - take 3 - Neato layout engine

TwoPi layout

Learning taxonomy - take 1 - SFDP layout engine

In-wiki graphviz generation

(removed)

I don't think that it is a good idea to use this wiki's graphviz interface to render large graphs, since it can only show the raw image (no thumbnail) - Daniel K. Schneider 17:57, 25 May 2010 (UTC).

Graphviz source code

I got several versions.

Hierarchical cluster model version 2

Here is one that adds some methods with respect to original Conole and Fill sources and that goes well with FDP and SFDP layout engines.

/*
Conole, Conole & Fill Learning and pedagogy taxonomy
Reloaded by Daniel K. Schneider, TECFA, University of Geneva, i.e. I put this together
from a variety of resources (papers, PPTs, Cloudworks, and DialogPlus + a bit of my own
http://edutechwiki.unige.ch/en/Conole_and_Fill_learning_taxonomy

ftp/sfdp layout models

Optimized for the following kinds of dot commands:
dot -s72 -Kfdp -Tsvg learning-taxonomy-fdp-2.map > learning-taxonomy-fdp-2.svg
dot -s72 -Ksfdp -Tsvg learning-taxonomy-fdp-2.map > learning-taxonomy-sfdp-3.svg
dot -s72 -Kfdp -Tdot learning-taxonomy-fdp-2.map > learning-taxonomy-fdp.dot

However:
* some attributes and even links (edges) needs to be ajusted for different layout models. E.g. sftp works best with a strictly hierarchical graph.
* some attributes are ignored, i.e. sfdp doesn't look at clusters or pos

Hierarchical cluster model version 3

Here is a version where I started to modify items and adding more of my own vision (just started adding some methods and learner tools) Still missing badly: Design patters (CSCL macro scripts, educational design models, etc.)

/*
Conole, Conele & Fill Learning and pedagogy taxonomy
Reloaded by Daniel K. Schneider, TECFA, University of Geneva, i.e. I put this together
from a variety of resources (papers, PPTs, Cloudworks, and DialogPlus + a bit of my own
http://edutechwiki.unige.ch/en/Conole_and_Fill_learning_taxonomy

ftp/sfdp layout models

Optimized for the following kinds of dot commands:
dot -s72 -Kfdp -Tsvg learning-taxonomy-fdp-2.map > learning-taxonomy-fdp-2.svg
dot -s72 -Ksfdp -Tsvg learning-taxonomy-fdp-2.map > learning-taxonomy-sfdp-3.svg
dot -s72 -Kfdp -Tdot learning-taxonomy-fdp-2.map > learning-taxonomy-fdp.dot

However:
* some attributes and even links (edges) needs to be ajusted for different layout models. E.g. sftp works best with a strictly hierarchical graph.
* some attributes are ignored, i.e. sfdp does not look at clusters or pos
* ''pos'' (positions) do not seem to work with sdfp

// -- start of the graph definition

digraph learning_taxonomy {

// -- -- graph attributes

// A0 landscape page size - should print fine as poster, either A0 or A1
// Size in inches of an A0 page is 48.8x33.1
// Size in points would be "3355,2383" points (1 inch = 72 points);

// A0 landscape
// size="46.8,33.1";
// A0 portrait page size
size="33.1,46.8";
// A0 square
// size="33.1,33.1";

// -- ratio is CRUCIAL
// either fill or expand will extend the graph to the size defined above, else you will get a thrown together mess. fill expands in two directions, expand stops when the first is filled.

// -- Smoothing - spreads, but may create large overlaps

// --- other global attributes to play with (some not working/useful)
// some are ignored or overridden by various models/attributes

// -- quadType

// -- width/height ratio
// aspect=0.7;

// -- Removes overlap but stretch too much, always also define scaling
//    streches out the clusters quite a lot, see the trees but not the forrest
// overlap="prism1000";

// -- packMode (seems to have little or no influence
//    pts around a pack
// pack = 50;
// -- pack method
// packMode = "node";

// repulsive force - use with SFDP to spread out
// repulsiveforce = 4;
