Chaoli Wang · IEEE Computer Graphics and Applications · 2022
This article describes the motivation, design, and evaluation of the VisVisual toolkit to engage students in learning essential visualization concepts, algorithms, and techniques. The toolkit includes four independent components: 1) VolumeVisual, 2) FlowVisual, 3) GraphVisual, and 4) TreeVisual, covering scalar and vector data visualization in scientific visualization and graph and tree layouts in information visualization. Complementary to the toolkit design is resource development, aiming to help instructors integrate VisVisual into their curriculum.
