  1. 1. Towards Visual Literacy in School : Interactions between Students and Interactive Visualizations in Social Science Classrooms

    Författare :Ulrika Bodén; Linnéa Stenliden; Jörgen Nissen; Annika Lantz-Andersson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Design-based research; Interactive visualizations; Knowledge visualizations; Multimodality; Social science education; Socio-materiality; Visual analytics; Visual literacy; Designbaserad forskning; Interaktiva visualiseringar; Kunskapsvisualiseringar; Samhällsorienterande undervisning; Socio-materialitet; Visuell litteracitet;

    Sammanfattning : This compilation thesis explores how the double aspect of visual literacy is enacted in secondary schools’ social science classrooms when interactive data visualizations are employed. The aim is to map what characterizes ‘reading’ interactive data visualizations and ‘writing’ knowledge visualizations, as well as implications for a didactic design supporting students’ visual literacy.

    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Molecular life science; visualizations; metaphors; help-words; Subject didactics; Ämnesdidaktik;

    Sammanfattning : Molecular life science has become one of the fastest-growing fields of scientific and technical innovation. An important issue for tomorrow’s education is to meet the challenge posed by various facets of molecular life science. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Perceptually Motivated Constraints on 3D Visualizations

    Författare :Camilla Forsell; Mats Lind; Thomas Porathe; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Människa-dator-interaktion; Perception; 3D; Human-Computer Interaction; Information visualization; User studies; Människa-dator-interaktion;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis addresses some important characteristics of human visual perception and their implications for three-dimensional (3D) information visualization. The effort can be divided into two parts. First, findings from vision science are explored and validated. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Travelling through time : Students’ interpretation of evolutionary time in dynamic visualizations

    Författare :Jörgen Stenlund; Lena Tibell; Konrad Schönborn; Niklas Gericke; Örebro universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Evolution; visualization; time; learning; threshold; zooming;

    Sammanfattning : Evolutionary knowledge is important to understand and address contemporary challenges such as loss of biodiversity, climate change and antibiotic resistance. An important aspect that is considered to be a threshold concept in teaching and learning about evolution is the time it involves. LÄS MER
