This page is a child of the Main Impvis Wiki Page. This is the ImpVis knowledge base; it contains all of the information ImpVis has accumulated as a community in order to design and develop effective interactive visualisations for education.

The structure of this page follows the steps of our design and development process closely.

Getting started

These are the suggested steps to take if you wish to know all about how to get involved in the ImpVis project.

  1. Read a brief overview of our design and development process.
  2. Find out how to get involved with a visualisation project.
  3. Understand what it means to work in partnership.

You can follow the links in the pages above to find out more information. Below are listed all the pages in the 'Getting Started' category in alphabetical order.

Visualisation design guidance

To create an interactive visualisation for education, you will need to consider the design of your visualisation carefully from several angles. The ImpVis template implements some of our ideas so that you do not need to design your visualisation entirely from scratch. Suggested reading:

  1. Which steps to take during the design process.
  2. Familiarise yourself with the ImpVis template (hosted on the ImpVis website) so you understand how it can support your visualisation design

Below we list all our further design guidance documents alphabetically, split up into three different categories: education, graphic, and interaction design. Note that we have only just started collating our experience in this section, so not all parts are populated yet - we aim to incorporate all knowledge generated by the ImpVis module students in this Wiki going forward.
