Visualisation Diagram Key Learning slides - slides to tell you everything you need to know

The Key Learning slides can be used to answer the questions:

Visualisation Diagram Questions - just the questions

Visualisation Diagram Workbook - the same questions with spaces for answers

Visualisation Diagram Knowledge Summary - a printable sheet which summarises the key learning from the slides

There are two quizzes you can try to test your understanding:

Examples of Visualisation Diagrams

Visualisation diagram for an onscreen app

Visualisation diagram for a single webpage aimed at primary school aged children

Visualisation diagram to show layout and design of a three page website

Diagram to show layout and design of a four slide interactive multimedia product

Initial design sketches to show ideas for a character. These aren't annotated, but were followed up by annotated diagrams. It's fine to do rough sketches like this if it's appropriate and if you have the art skills - but you don't need to!

A basic storyboard showing visualisation ideas for the fox character. This storyboard isn't suitable for iMedia purposes, so this is more of a visualisation diagram.

A basic storyboard showing visualisation ideas for an animation. The storyboard isn't quite suitable for iMedia purposes, so this is more of a visualisation diagram showing ideas

Visualisation diagrams can also be produced digitally using software packages, but the best examples usually use pencils and paper.

You may want to use colour directly on your diagrams. That's fine, but there's no need to. Just make sure that you add notes to deal with this sort of thing.

You can find exam questions dealing with visualisation diagrams on the exam questions page.
