Complexities of Graphical Representations during Ecology Lectures: An Analysis Rooted in Semiotics and Hermeneutic Phenomenology.
Roth, Wolff-Michael; Bowen, G. Michael
Learning and Instruction, v9 n3 p235-55 1999
Examined cognitive complexities when graphs were used in lectures by observing 39 lectures, 36 seminars in which students solved problems, and 14 sessions of scientists interpreting graphs. Findings show that lectures present a scanty image of the use and interpretation of graphs. Discusses the analytic method, which relies on semiotics and hermeneutic phenomenology. (SLD)
