Definition

The idea is to use a graphical representation to represent an information space, e.g. a complex concept, a WebSite or parts of the Web as a whole, user activities ....


DSchneider doesn't know if we should split this up like for example the Wikipedia:Visualization article (and add multimedia animations which are not necessarily the same as what they call Wikipedia: Knowledge visualization).


Visualization in education

Here is (quick) some brainstorming regarding different areas:

  • To display social webs and show what people do
  • To display complex (subject) data, i.e. students use a real tool
  • To organize & moderate group or class discussion (e.g. [1] [2] [3] [4] [5]) writable tables or other devices

Learners, can either use or build visualizations (or both of course). We shall put some emphasis on building of course ...

Technology

  • Various concept maps (e.g. mind maps)
  • Topic maps
  • Tree maps and pyramid maps
  • Fractal maps
