How are educational values and pedagogical approaches inscribed into automated education technologies and their data visualizations? In this article we analyze the design process and technical and pedagogical debates of a team of researchers and developers working on an automated scoring tool for primary school students' early writing as part of…

With notions of data visualization expanding to include contemporary art and design, data visualization represents an important new dimension for transdisciplinary art education. The pedagogical potential of these practices has begun to be recognized in many fields, including art education. However, despite substantial interest, little research…

Information design is the theory and practice of presenting information through the pairing of graphic and verbal content. It is important in the sciences because of the centrality of data visualization in research and teaching. This paper seeks to build the case for the inclusion of information design within both the Geography and university- or…

Recent research has indicated that the manner in which single-case data are typically displayed for visual analysis may influence rater decisions regarding the effect of an intervention. Subsequently, researchers have encouraged adherence to a standard assembly for linear graphs in order to control these effects. Others, however, have encouraged…

The increasing availability of digital tools in science classrooms can provide students with more frequent and easier access to large amounts of data. Large data sets have considerable epistemological potential, as they enable, for instance, the observation of otherwise unobservable phenomena, but it must be assumed that handling them places…

Educational dashboards are increasingly prevalent visualising technologies that display data from educational processes to help learners and educators track learning pathways, alert for deviations, and make interventions. This study contributes to critical studies on data visualisations in education by examining dashboards in higher distance…

With rapid development of sequencing technology and the continuous accumulation of biological big data, people who are capable of using bioinformatic skills to analyze omics data and work out biological problems are urgently needed in the workforce, which highlights the importance of developing bioinformatics skills early in the undergraduate…

This article examines how students learn about data-driven decision-making by creating and using a dashboard to play an online version of the familiar Beer Game. The objective is to apply data visualization skills to a business system in a way that leads to effective decisions. The students not only build a dashboard in Tableau, they also use it…

This manuscript describes the use of real data applied to a fictional real-estate firm for teaching data visualization to university students. In the case study, students employ data analytic techniques in Tableau to clean, organize, and analyze real estate data. By creating visualizations, students address several questions about how selling…

In 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic urged authorities to share quantitative information such as infection and death rates. One way of disseminating was through graphs, maps, and diagrams. Such data visualizations communicate numeric data in compact ways, but also require a particular mathematical literacy from readers. We conceptualized this particular…

The R programming language and computing environment is a powerful and common platform used by life science researchers and educators for the analysis of big data. One of the benefits of using R in this context is its ability to visualize the results. Using R to generate visualizations has gained in popularity due to the increased number of R…

The purpose of the study was to understand the experiences of data scientists regarding common skills and strategies of interpreting and creating data visualizations. In this Delphi study, the participants were researchers in Data Science using three rounds of surveys. Skills and strategies were identified after Delphi Panel 1 and then brought…

This paper offers a creative methodology for co-creating and analysing data when conducting research with children, families and practitioners in the early years. Instead of relying heavily on either adult observation or language when, for example, interviewing children, we propose the method of choreographed visual montage. We show the novelty…

In this study, we propose a MOOC Analytic Statistical Visual model (MOOC-ASV) to explore students' engagement in MOOC courses and predict their performance on the basis of their behaviors logged as big data in MOOC platforms. The model has multifunctions, which performs on visually analyzing learners' data by state-of-the-art techniques. The model…

Generative AI (GenAI) has the potential to revolutionize the analysis of educational data, significantly impacting learning analytics (LA). This study explores the capability of non-experts, including administrators, instructors, and students, to effectively use GenAI for descriptive LA tasks without requiring specialized knowledge in data…
