The drawing was inverted in order to reduce the chance of participantsrelating the shapes to symbols. A selection of participant drawings is shown in figure2.Findings 1. All participants expressed a feeling of being “very pleased” with their drawing 2. They stated that their focus was on proportionality and drawing the picture in parts rather than as a whole. 3.

representationalpractices along with providing graphic tools (i.e., symbolic conventions, authorized or justifiedrepresentations) and the ability to achieve classroom consensus through the use of multiplegraphical representations15,16,17.Science as a discourse is a mix of multi-modal forms of representation—linguistic, numerical,graphical and tabular modes—integrated to represent scientific phenomenon18. Studentsencounter two challenges: a) the integration of multiple modes of representation of a particularphenomena or problem19, and b) the learning skills necessary to create representations ofphenomena in an iterative manner to further their scientific thinking20. Teacher understanding ofhow to support student-generated graphics requires some formal appreciation

What is urgently needed is systematic research efforts focused on three basicareas designed to provide data on: (a) what specific individual difference variables in learnersactually make a difference in student achievement in the teaching learning process, (b) which ofthese individual difference variables interact significantly with different kinds of visualizationused to complement
