Le Scribing | Facilitation Graphique Définition C’est la modélisation graphique en temps réel d’une discussion. Cette technique, aussi appelée « graphic recording » ou « discussion mapping », a pour objectif de faciliter une discussion en cours en mettant en place un système de feedback entre le groupe en discussion et le facilitateur graphique. Le facilitateur graphique est alors appelé « scriber » ou « graphic recorder » et réalise un « scribe » [skraib] ; ces anglicismes proviennent de l’origine de cette pratique. Une discussion est tout sauf linéaire. Effets et intérêts Voici quelques intérêts non négligeables d’utiliser le scribing : Outre les effets qu’il produit sur les participants lors de la discussion, ce visuel permet de garder une trace tangible des éléments clés. Limites Son intérêt est relatif pour quelqu’un qui n’a pas assisté à la discussion sans l’accompagnement d’une personne présente. Cette technique de facilitation graphique permet de cristalliser et garder une trace des échanges et d’une discussion.
2013 Visual Thinking & Literacy Conference | Saturday, April 13, 2013 in Birmingham, Michigan Visualization as Process, Not Output - Jer Thorp by Jer Thorp | 8:00 AM April 3, 2013 “Please make me a visualization.” I get a lot of emails that say this or some variation of it. They tend to make me think of other requests that could be made in the same form, like: “Please make me a roast beef sandwich.” Or: “Please make me a scale model of the Eiffel Tower.” Roast beef sandwiches and scale models of the Eiffel Tower, in these sentences, are common nouns. “Please visualize our data.” The nice thing about this sentence is that it may result in many things. In 2009, I was asked by Jake Barton to design an algorithm that would place the nearly 3,000 names of victims on the 9/11 memorial in Manhattan in specific places, so that certain names could be near each other, per the wishes of their next-of-kin. The first step, then, was to get some idea of the scale and peculiarities of this particular problem. A visualization of the victim names and requested adjacencies for the 9/11 Memorial. None of these is meant for public consumption.
How to Tell a Story with Data - Jim Stikeleather by Jim Stikeleather | 11:00 AM April 24, 2013 An excellent visualization, according to Edward Tufte, expresses “complex ideas communicated with clarity, precision and efficiency.” I would add that an excellent visualization also tells a story through the graphical depiction of statistical information. As I discussed in an earlier post, visualization in its educational or confirmational role is really a dynamic form of persuasion. So how does a visual designer tell a story with a visualization? Find the compelling narrative.
Using Social Media to Teach Visual Literacy in the 21st Century Classroom Increasingly, educators are acknowledging and welcoming the relative advantages of social media into the teaching and learning process. From creating school Facebook pages to connecting students with experts via Twitter, social media has taken root as a legitimate classroom learning and communication tool. The highly linguistic nature of social media allows us to create and consume ideas and information unlike ever before. Much attention has been given to composing an articulate blog post and condensing our messages to 140 characters or less. However, effective use of this 21st century technology requires that we not only become proficient in textual communication, but also in our ability to express ourselves and interpret others' ideas through visual literacy. Why Visual Literacy Matters Visual literacy is the ability to: Process and make meaning of information presented in an image.
