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).

To do list:

  • Add some missing ingredients (e.g. in the tools sections or instructional design models)
  • Rethink (maybe) the hierarchy
  • Remove some clouds (maybe) and/or produce multi-page graphs

See also DialogPlus Toolkit and Compendium LD

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 is graphviz source code.
  • 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

(i.e. 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 ....

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

SFDP layout (defaults)

These visualizations are totally hierarchical. 

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 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 + spring

ratio = expand
smoothing="spring";

A0 size landscape:

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

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 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

Reloaded by Daniel K. Schneider, TECFA, University of Geneva, i.e. I put this together
