Learning from Dynamic Visualization

Mehr zum Buch

This volume addresses the significant reliance on visualizations, particularly dynamic ones, in education today. It highlights the shift in educational practices where text is no longer the primary means of conveying information. The focus is on how dynamic visual components of multimedia resources can independently influence learning. The book aims to bridge the gap between the widespread use of dynamic visualizations and our limited understanding of their impact on learning. It features contributions from international leaders in the field, offering diverse perspectives on the intersection of dynamic visualizations and education. This work is the first comprehensive exploration of the topic, combining insights from renowned researchers and expert practitioners. Instead of providing a broad overview, it emphasizes innovative, cutting-edge research that challenges existing norms and suggests future directions. The contributions aim to inspire new developments in the design and application of dynamic visualizations for educational purposes, as well as to promote rigorous investigation into their effectiveness in learning contexts.
