- Additional information
- The ability to critically engage with and interpret data is an important skill, and visualisation as a method to analyse and communicate data has become ubiquitous. Promoting visualisation literacy from an early age is therefore crucial, yet visualisation tools tailored toward children barely exist. This work presents ground-breaking research on the design of educational tools that teach children the interpretation and creation of digital data visualisations. Tools were designed in close collaboration with primary school teachers and children to facilitate future uptake in schools. First presented in 2019 this work has already informed subsequent work in this area.
