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 some brainstorming for different areas:
- As navigation aid in complex information spaces (a good example is the visualization of this wiki.
- To demonstrate principles and concepts with some kind of cognitive map
- To display social webs and show what people do
- To display complex (subject) data, i.e. students use a real tool
Learners, can either use or build visualizations (or both of course).
