methods, curriculum design, teaching to diverse audiences, tools and
platforms for teaching, assessment techniques for evaluating learning
outcomes,
- Enabling and exploiting visualization tools and techniques to teach
in other disciplines.
- Classroom challenges in visualization, e.g. innovative and effective
assessment, engaging student interest, managing diverse student
backgrounds, teaching mathematical foundations,
- Incorporating modern technology in visualization courses (e.g. VR,
AR, 3D printing, gaming, etc),
- Bringing visualization research into the classroom,
- Promoting undergraduate research in visualization,
- Visualization Literacy - models and frameworks for evaluating data
visualization literacy, strategies to enhance data visualization

data visualization literacy initiatives.

We invite authors to submit their contributions that fall into one of
the following categories:

Regular papers [max. 8 pages]
describing the experience of educators in the topics listed above,
bringing ideas on how to make the education process more efficient and
funnier, attracting students to further research work, discussing
innovative opportunities, etc. Whenever possible, we encourage authors
to provide evidence of their effectiveness.

Innovative assignments [max. 4 pages]
explaining real assignments, providing examples of handouts and
starter code and  examples of  student work. Explanations and
descriptions of when and how to implement and facilitate the
