Data Visualization as Participatory Research: A Model for Digital Collections to Inspire User-Driven Research     

A. Miller 《Journal of Web Librarianship》2019,13(2):127-155

The emerging creative practices of digital collections are increasing in prominence thanks to the access to, and appeal of, data visualizations. Interactive data visualizations, such as a map, timeline, chart, graph, or artist’s rendering of data, enable users to pursue their own research interests within a collection and participate in new areas of research. Use of these data visualizations enhances the scope of the collection and enables a modern and diverse thematic collection to emerge. This article considers the question: Does the addition of data visualizations affect how users participate with a research collection? Impacts on collection development, application of user-centered design, and analysis of users’ exploratory strategies are discussed. Examples of data visualizations used in digital humanities projects and digital collections are presented as case studies.  相似文献

The Future of English     

Chris Davies 《English in Education》1991,25(3):28-31

The unity of "unitary" English, subsuming "language" and "literature", has always been a central tenet of NATE thinking and a basic assumption of most progressive practice, and is now enshrined in the National Curriculum¹. In this article, however, Chris Davies makes the scandalous proposal that the time has come when "language" and "literature", radically transformed, would be better separated.  相似文献

Do physical activity beliefs differ by age and gender?   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  

Rhodes RE  Blanchard CM  Blacklock RE 《运动与训练心理学杂志》2008,30(3):412-423

Age and gender are consistently related to physical activity (PA), yet theoretical explanation for these associations is scant. The present study compared the mean values and correlations of a population sample, divided by gender and age group, with respect to theory of planned behavior beliefs (behavioral, normative, and control) and PA. Participants were a sample (N=6,739) of adults (M age=49.65, SD=16.04) who completed measures of social and health demographics, theory of planned behavior beliefs, and self-reported PA. Mean analyses identified greater perceived control over PA for seniors than for young and middle-aged adults (N>.025). Belief-behavior correlations, however, were not different across age and gender in 24 of 26 tests (q<.19). Thus, PA beliefs are invariant across age and gender with the exception of mean levels of perceived control, which are lower among younger adults than older adults. Factors such as early parenthood and career demands were considered the likely reasons for differences. Overall, the evidence suggests that adapting theoretical models for specific age groups or based on gender may not be necessary.  相似文献
