Running head: EXPLANATIONS FOR EXPERTS AND NOVICES 1 Coordinating Gesture, Word, and Diagram: Explanations for Experts and Novices EXPLANATIONS FOR EXPERTS AND NOVICES
Successful explanations are a symphony of gesture, language, and props. Here, we show how they are orchestrated in an experiment in which students explained complex systems to imagined novices and experts. Visual-spatial communication--diagram and gesture--was key; it represents thought more directly than language. The props, real or virtual diagrams created from gestures, served as the stage f...
متن کاملDifferences between Avalanche Experts and Novices
Differences between avalanche experts and novices have long been cited as a key issue in designing effective avalanche education, yet few investigations have quantitatively explored these differences. In this study, we examine how self-reported training, knowledge, skills, and behavior differ between avalanche experts and novices. From 2002 to 2004, we surveyed 300 avalanche professionals and w...
متن کاملAuditory category knowledge in experts and novices
What do listeners know about sounds that have a systematic organization? Research suggests that listeners store absolute pitch information as part of their representations for specific auditory experiences. It is unclear however, if such knowledge is abstracted beyond these experiences. In two studies we examined this question via a tone adjustment task in which listeners heard one of several t...
متن کاملComparing Usage Patterns of Domain Experts and Novices in Visual Analytical Tasks
Our research focuses on the use of visual analysis tools. In this paper, we examine the differences between expert and novice financial analysts using a visual analytics tool. Our formal study involving 10 experts and 10 novices indicates there are significant differences in usage patterns between the two groups that potentially impact the design of tools to aid in analysis and sensemaking.
متن کاملComparing Experts and Novices in Solving Electrical Circuit Problems with the Help of Eye-Tracking
In order to help introductory physics students understand and learn to solve problems with circuits, we must first understand how they differ from experts. This preliminary study focuses on problem-solving dealing with electrical circuits. We investigate difficulties novices have with circuits and compare their work with those of experts. We incorporate the use of an eye-tracker to investigate ...
