   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Data visualization; geovisual analytics; visual storytelling; interaction; learning activities; learning conditions; social science education; Data visualisering; geovisual analytics; visual storytelling; interaktion; läraktivitet; lärandevillkor; samhällsorienterande undervisning;

   Abstract : The aim of this compilation thesis is to understand how technology for visual storytelling can be shaped and used in relation to social science education in primary school, but also how social dimensions, technical and other matters create emerging learning conditions in such an educational setting. The visual storytelling technology introduced and used in the study is ‘the Statistics eXplorer platform, a geovisual analytics. READ MORE

4. 2. Accommodating differences : Power, belonging, and representation online

   Author : Karin Hansson; Love Ekenberg; Ina Wagner; Stockholms universitet; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; e-participation; e-democracy; online identity; artistic research; visual method; participatory method; belonging; singularity; performative states; Computer and Systems Sciences; data- och systemvetenskap;

   Abstract : How can political participatory processes online be understood in the dynamic, conflicted and highly mediated situations of contemporary society? What does democracy mean in a scenario where inequality and difference are the norms, and where people tend to abandon situations in which they and their interests are not recognized? How can we accommodate differences rather than consensus in a scenario where multiple networks of people are the starting point rather than a single community?In this thesis, these questions are explored through an iterative process in two studies that have used or resulted in three prototypes and one art exhibition. The first study is of communication practices in a global interest community, which resulted in two prototypes: Actory, a groupware that takes differences rather than equality as the starting point for a collaborative tool, and The Affect Machine, a social network where differences are used as a relational capital.
