Visual Literacy: An E-Learning Tutorial on Visualization for Communication, Engineering and Business

This e-learning site focuses on a critical, but often neglected skill for business, communication, and engineering students, namely visual literacy, or the ability to evaluate, apply, or create conceptual visual representations. After this tutorial, students should be able to evaluate advantages and disadvantages of visal representations, to improve their shortcomings, to use them to create and communicate knowledge, or to devise new ways of representing insights.

The first day of the seminar is nearly over - still having the welcome party before us. We started listening to lectures by Torsten Meyer (What could Visual Knowledge Building mean?), Stefan Sonvilla-Weiss (Visual Knowledge Building and surveillance culture) and Julia Schawe (Fake in web2.0 as a form of digital resistance).

After lunch the students active part of the seminar began - with presentations of the group-projects. First was Raimo talking about “Ubiquitous education”. Or speaking in his words: ubication and ubigogy. This presentation was followed by a lively discussion about the digital divide, cultural differences and how these questions are connected to the topic of ubiquitous education speaking in terms of ePedagogy Design.

The next presentation was held by Owen about Blogs, Wikis and Blikis (a word Owen tried to avoid ). It was mainly focused on the differences in use and the advantages and disadvantages of each in pedagogical processes.

Lincoln closed the day giving a short introduction to the topics of the Amagezzi-group. Camilla will give a longer presentation via Skype from Honolulu. To be prepared everybody should read the text she provides at her website due to Saturday.

We started a bit later after the finnair flight was delayed.
Torsten Meyer started with a short introduction into visual knowledge building with a lot of examples he found on the web. Here are some links to things he showed us.
