Complexity level

Complexity is no more than 2. This is

Operations

Summarizes nature of informational operations (exercice types) that can be setup.

Purpose

Summarizes the cognitive outcome of using this operator.

Applications

Direct Workflow

Describes the typical scenario for a Direct Workflow.

Reverse Workflow

Describes the typical scenario for one or more Reverse Workflows.

Meta Workflow

Describes what pedagogic cognitive concepts can be discovered

Implementation

Setup

  • quantifier type: quantification can be integer or float
  • X axix label: label for X
  • X min range: lowest value accepted on X
  • X max range: highest value accepted on X
  • Y axix label: label for Y
  • Y min range: lowest value accepted on Y
  • Y max range: highest value accepted on Y
  • proximity radius: Distance value for aggregating input equivalence classes

Teacher options :

2D Mapping operation GUI

The essential work asked to students is to report X,Y coordinates as two independant valuators as attributes. The result of the 2D valuation will be to display the input locations on a graphic map, identify equivalency proximities, draw and analyse mediatrix and input spread.

  • Blind mode: For each input, two valuation widgets are provided.
    • If quantifier type is integer : use DHTMLx sliders
    • If quantifier is float, use standard textual inputs, with number format check.
  • Semi-blind: Same as above, with average statitics : mean of all other answers, and spread indicator.
  • Full View: Same as above, with average statitics : mean of all other answers, and spread indicator, but shown BEFORE inputing data.

Display GUI

Describes what can be expected as result display and exploration GUI behaviour for each privacy mode (Blind, Semi-blind, Full view / No privacy).

Merely Display GUI are visualizing tools aiming at :

  • Help participant assess himself against a teacher answer of exists
  • Help participant to self-position himself in a group (knowing global trends)
  • Help participant to examine the group answer structure anonimized
  • Help participant to examine and argue nominatively with peers (full view)
  • Observe and find emerging organisations from the group answers
  • Discover how some cognitive operations work
