This is a template which you can use to help get you started on the wiki submission. It is just intended as a guide and you may modify the structure to suit your project.

Aims & Learning Outcomes

  • Explain the motivation for your visualisation.
  • Introduce the subject of your visualisation.
  • Which module and year is it intended for and which setting (lecture or self study)?
  • List learning outcomes. E.g.: "After using this visualisation, students should be able to explain that..."


This visualisation would be used as teaching tools in MATE50005 (Materials Characterisation) lectures as well as self-study tools in lab sessions. It will also be useful in the MATE70001 module (MSc Characterisation course).

After using this visualisation, students will be able to:

  • qualitatively describe the relationship between direct and reciprocal lattices.
  • discuss the features of reciprocal space and how they relate to a crystal’s structure.
  • relate the motion of a diffractometer to that of the scattering vector through reciprocal space.
  • evaluate the effect of experimental conditions on the diffraction patterns obtained.

Design Overview

  • What the final outcome was, how it looks, how it functions etc.
  • Include graphics.
  • Do not include justification or design progression, leave this for later sections.

Design Justification

Assessment Criteria

  • List your cohort's assessment criteria. You may want to number the assessment criteria so you can refer to them easily later.

Education Design

  • What Methods were considered to convey concepts?
  • Design progression, key choices with justifications.
  • How has feedback been incorporated.

Graphical Design

  • How were accessibility issues considered?
  • How was space used effectively?
  • Design progression, key choices with justifications.
  • How has feedback been incorporated.
  • How is the design intuitive?

Interaction Design

  • Choice of interactive element(s) that fit in organically with the visualisation [inspiration of choice might be from lecture/in-class activity or other sources] - Sliders/Buttons/Cursor (hover/click).
  • Keeping accessibility of interactive elements in mind during design phase.
  • Design progression, key choices with justifications.
  • How has feedback been incorporated.

Progress and Future Work

  • Is the design finalised?
  • Which pages have been uploaded to website?
  • Any ideas for future improvements.

Links

  • Link to GitHub repository for code in development:
  • Link to visualisation on ImpVis website (when uploaded):
  • Link to Collection on ImpVis website (when created):
  • Any other links to resources (Miro boards / notes pages / Google Docs etc):
