Description & Coverage
Description:

The representation of abstract data and ideas can be a difficult and tedious task to handle when learning new concepts; however, the advances of emerging technology have allowed for new methods of representing such conceptual data.

The Handbook of Research on Maximizing Cognitive Learning through Knowledge Visualization focuses on the use of visualization technologies to assist in the process of better comprehending scientific concepts, data, and applications. Highlighting the utilization of visual power and the roles of sensory perceptions, computer graphics, animation, and digital storytelling, this book is an essential reference source for instructors, engineers, programmers, and software developers interested in the exchange of information through the visual depiction of data.

Coverage:

The many academic areas covered in this publication include, but are not limited to:

  • Electronic Media
  • Mathematical Thinking
  • Multisensory Applications
  • Sensory Extension
  • Social Networking
  • Stochastic Art
  • Visual Plan Construct Language
Reviews & Statements

Among specific topics are the simultaneous perception of parallel streams of visual data, the duality of natural and technological explanations, drawing simple shapes and forms in various programming languages, re-visualizing Giotto's 14th-century Assisi fresco "Exorcism of the Demons at Arezzo," digitally mediated art inspired by scientific research, and bringing the arts as data to visualize how knowledge works.
