论文摘要

我们展示了活动河,这是一种个人可视化工具,使个人能够计划,记录和反思其自定义的活动。我们有兴趣支持这种反思性实践,因为先前的工作表明,反思可以帮助人们有效地计划和管理时间。因此,我们根据五个设计目标(可视化历史和上下文数据,促进目标和成就的比较,以令人愉悦的视觉效果,支持作者身份以及启用灵活的计划和伐木)来设计活动河,我们将其从信息可视化和人类计算机互动文献中提炼出来。为了探索我们的方法的优势和局限性,我们使用角色扮演方法对活动河进行了定性研究。通过这种定性探索,我们说明了我们的参与者如何使用我们的可视化对他们的活动进行动态和持续的反思。我们观察到,他们能够评估他们在计划方面的进步,并使用我们的工具适应了不可预见的情况。

We present Activity River, a personal visualization tool which enables individuals to plan, log, and reflect on their self-defined activities. We are interested in supporting this type of reflective practice as prior work has shown that reflection can help people plan and manage their time effectively. Hence, we designed Activity River based on five design goals (visualize historical and contextual data, facilitate comparison of goals and achievements, engage viewers with delightful visuals, support authorship, and enable flexible planning and logging) which we distilled from the Information Visualization and Human-Computer Interaction literature. To explore our approach's strengths and limitations, we conducted a qualitative study of Activity River using a role-playing method. Through this qualitative exploration, we illustrate how our participants envisioned using our visualization to perform dynamic and continuous reflection on their activities. We observed that they were able to assess their progress towards their plans and adapt to unforeseen circumstances using our tool.
