Hugh Macdonald and others discuss data sensemaking and communication through social objects and visualization. They explore design patterns for mapping, decoration, tweakability, annotation, and snapshots that help people interact with and understand data in a social context. Social objects that data is centered around can focus discussions and interactions.

Digital connectivity is a transformative phenomenon of the 21st century. While many have debated its impact on society, educators have been quick to mandate technology in school development - often without analysing the digital fluency of those involved, and the actual impact on learning. Is being digitally tethered creating a new learning nexus for those involved?

Abstract:
Today we are witnessing several shifts in scholarly practice, in and across multiple disciplines, as researchers embrace digital techniques to tackle established research questions in new ways and new questions afforded by digital and digitized collections, approaches, and technologies. Pervasive adoption of technology, coupled with the co-creation of new social processes, has created a new and complex space for scholarship where citizens both generate and analyse data as they interact at the intersection of the physical and digital. Drawing on a background in distributed computing, and adopting the lens of Social Machines, this talk discusses current activity in digital scholarship, framing it in its interdisciplinary settings.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

Design patterns are another kind of social object. They also help us to frame a situation, to have foundational approaches to common messy problems
WHen you put visualization inside a social system, you get an interesting circuit of learning and collaboration We used some design patterns to help describe how this circuit can be implemented...
One of the most common problems that users experience when they present a dataset as a visualization is that they don’t always know the best visualization technique to use that fits with their data that they are presenting and achieves their communication or analysis goals. Users need to learn the inbuilt strengths and limitations of different visualization techniques and how these might fit onto the data they are seeking to present. Use when People need to choose the most appropriate way to visualize a dataset. Solution Help the person determine their analysis or communication goals and then suggest a visualization approach that maps most closely onto their stated objectives and is appropriate for their dataset. Many Eyes provides many different visualisation approaches and groups them by headings such as ‘analyse’ and ‘comparison’. Then next to each type of visualisation approach is a description of what that will highlight in the data set Why This chart suggestions flow chart breaks a wide range of visualisations into different communication outcomes, and variables of those outcomesRather than forcing people to concentrate on learning the merits of different visualization approaches (which can seem esoteric), guiding them through their communication and analysis goals helps people to focus on what they already know about their data and context they want to present it in. How Attempt to determine the communication or analysis goals the person has for their data visualization, including:who they will be sharing the visualization withwhat kind of data they will be visualizingwhat outcomes they want the visualization to createBased on these factors, suggest a visualization approach for the data, explaining why that approach is best suited to their goals.Also present a range of other visualization approaches to the person, stressing their individual strengths and weaknesses.IssuesThis requires users to have a good understanding of the original data to be able to choose an appropriate visualization approach that communicates the dataset in the visual medium. An alternative approach by Many Eyes Wikified automati cally chooses the visualization approach by performing a textual analysis on the dataset and choosing the best approach based on keywords (e.g. world uses a world map – heat map visualization), thus eliminating this problem. cally chooses the visualization approach by performing a textual analysis on the dataset and choosing the best approach based on keywords (e.g. world uses a world map – heat map visualization), thus eliminating this problem. cally chooses the visualization approach by performing a textual analysis on the dataset and choosing the best approach based on keywords (e.g. world uses a world map – heat map visualization), thus eliminating this problem. cally chooses the visualization approach by performing a textual analysis on the dataset and choosing the best approach based on keywords (e.g. world uses a world map – heat map visualization), thus eliminating this problem. cally chooses the visualization approach by performing a textual analysis on the dataset and choosing the best approach based on keywords (e.g. world uses a world map – heat map visualization), thus eliminating this problem. cally chooses the visualization approach by performing a textual analysis on the dataset and choosing the best approach based on keywords (e.g. world uses a world map – heat map visualization), thus eliminating this problem. cally chooses the visualization approach by performing a textual analysis on the dataset and choosing the best approach based on keywords (e.g. world uses a world map – heat map visualization), thus eliminating this problem. cally chooses the visualization approach by performing a textual analysis on the dataset and choosing the best approach based on keywords (e.g. world uses a world map – heat map visualization), thus eliminating this problem. cally chooses the visualization approach by performing a textual analysis on the dataset and choosing the best approach based on keywords (e.g. world uses a world map – heat map visualization), thus eliminating this problem.
People need to attach visual meaning and identity to a visualization so that it can exist within an object centered social space and its meaning can be quickly transferred to others. Use when Creating a visualization within a social space for the purposes of attaching an identity and communicating the meaning of the object in a visual way. Solution Let people integrate imagery and other media into their visualization to better communicate that visualization’s relevance and context.Swivel queries Flickr with the chosen title of the visualization to provide images that can be used as a background for the visualization Why Decorating a visual representation provides it with an identity in much the same way that an avatar provides a user with an identity within a social network. This provides extra information about the visualization to other users, and contextualizes its place within a social space. In turn, this objectifies the visualization and allows it to exist on its own within the social environment.It also reduces the cognitive load on other users, and allows the inherent meaning in the visualization to be communicated and consequently transferred to the community with greater ease. How Integrate with the search APIs of user generated content communities to access images and media that relate to the content of the visualization. Issues Assigning absolute meaning to media can be tricky, and often fails to communicate effectively across different cultures. People can ‘read’ images and media very differently.

Users need a way of shifting and reformatting a data visualization so that they can make sense of the whole data set by understanding how it responds to dynamic changes Use when One or more of the visualization parameters is variable (eg profit margin, unit cost)One or more of the visualization parameters is ordered (eg time, scale, amount, location) Solution Instead of making the visualization a snapshot, make it an interface that lets a user playfully explore the data. Gapminder enables a user to change or swap axes to look for correlations, as well as tweak other aspects of complex datasets.Create ways for users to change how a dataset is represented in a visualization allowing the impact of any changes they make to be immediately reflected.With ordered data, allow users to sort the data. eg: by labels, values and data order.Give users the ability to reconfigure a visualization schema. eg: swap the X and Y axis on a two dimensional graph.Pay attention to usability when designing visualization interfaces, eg: clearly communicate which parameter is selected, and what visualization elements it affects. Why Being able to tweak a parameter value and see how it affects a visualization helps communicate the relationship that parameter has to the whole visual analysis. This can help people see trends and make sense of complex datasets more quickly than with static visualizations. How Build controls into the interface that enable users to perform actions such as resorting the data, excluding certain parts of the data, or changing a variable that reflects the outcome of the data. This can be done through the use of drop down menus, radio buttons, check boxes and sliders.

People need to comment on, or draw attention to specific elements of a visualization without compromising legibility of that visualization. Use when Wanting to promote discussion of visualization details and sub-elements. Solution Give people the ability to make annotations that are consistent and are not disruptive in any way to the underlying visualisation. Wikinvest allows users to annotate a company’s share price performance with non-disruptive annotations. Why Being able to create non-disruptive annotations adds knowledge to the visualization, the use of non-disruptive annotations means that all members of the community are talking in the same visual language which makes community sensemaking an easier process. How Instead of giving people a set of drawing, arrow and box tools as can be found in some desktop software, provide them with a single method of annotating a visualization that is in keeping with the visualization approach used (eg. highlight bars in a bar chart, show the height of ranges in a flow graph).

When people can interact with the parameters of a visualization, they need to be able to store ‘snapshots’ of the visualization in order to communicate their understanding of a specific visualization configuration. Use when Interactive visualization is used to support discussion of a dataset. Solution Allow people to store and retrieve configurations of a data visualization. Many Eyes allows a snapshot of the current visualization state to be saved, and attached to a separate text based comment. Why Being able to see what another person saw is an important way of understanding what they are trying to communicate.Collecting snapshots along with discussion is a good way to illustrate the evolution of understanding around a dataset. How When commenting on a data visualization, attach a ‘snapshot’ of what the visualization currently looks like to the comment.When selecting a comment, configure the visualization to reflect the ‘snapshot’ associated with that comment. Issues Snapshots do not provide a good overview of the insight that a community has extracted from a visualisation.

How When commenting on a data visualization, attach a ‘snapshot’ of what the visualization currently looks like to the comment.When selecting a comment, configure the visualization to reflect the ‘snapshot’ associated with that comment. Issues Snapshots do not provide a good overview of the insight that a community has extracted from a visualisation. It is necessary to look through each snapshot and comment to get a sense of what has transpired.
WHen you put visualization inside a social system, you get an interesting circuit of learning and collaboration We used some design patterns to help describe how this circuit can be implemented...
these patterns are all documented (with video examples) at http://socialvizpatterns.info
