From WCET 2016 where Carmean and Robinson make the claim that “digital pointillism” and seeking meaning in pattern has changed the way we see the world. From a distance, blurry clusters of dots - whether in colors, data, behaviors, beliefs - can provide a broader understanding that comes to life with making patterns visual. Just as Seurat and Signac connected dots to allow us to understand a canvas differently, analytics work, by clustering and displaying the dots in new, unseen ways, enables institutions to see patterns in what is - or can be - known about our learners.
