Visualization of analytic provenance for sensemaking
Sensemaking is an iterative and dynamic process, in which people collect data relevant to their tasks, analyze the collected information to produce new knowledge, and possibly inform further actions. During the sensemaking process, it is difficult for the human’s working memory to keep track of the …

Understanding classroom environments: An organizational sensemaking approach
There has been a call from quantitative and qualitative researchers to study classroom environments. Causal mapping offers a new methodological approach to understanding what might be occurring in classrooms in terms of student attitudes and beliefs. Ten students were randomly selected from two …

Investigating Awareness-Supporting Techniques in Co-located Sensemaking
Co-located sensemaking has benefitted from multi-user multi-touch devices such as tabletops and wall-mounted displays. Sensemakers use these displays to establish personal workspaces in which to perform individual sensemaking tasks, while preserving a shared space for the exchange and integration …

Making Representations Matter: Understanding Practitioner Experience in Participatory Sensemaking
… such as aesthetics, narrative, improvisation, sensemaking, and ethics. It extends taxonomies of such practices found in related research, and contributes to a critique of functionalist or techno-rationalist approaches to studying professional practice. It studies how fourteen practitioners …

Volatile congregations : crisis sensemaking in a Southern Baptist Church
… of this study was to test the assertion that Sensemaking Theory is an appropriate lens to understand church crisis by highlighting the role of communication as a central aspect of the sensemaking process. In addition, through the application of Sensemaking Theory, the secondary goal was to …

Narrative Maps: A Computational Model to Support Analysts in Narrative Sensemaking
… particular, narratives are a key element of the sensemaking process of analysts. In this work, we propose a narrative model and visualization method to aid analysts with this process. In particular, we propose the narrative maps framework—an event-based representation that uses a directed acyclic …
