In an effort to expose students to these types ofvisualizations students were asked to summarize each individual chapter of a technology-basedbook of their choice as a different type of data or information graphic. This exercise exposedstudents to a wide range of visualization types and gave them tools for future engineering projectdocument design. The periodic table of visualization website was used as a starting point for thetypes of visualizations students could explore. This site is an e-learning site focusing on visualliteracy: the ability to evaluate, apply, or create conceptual visual representations. This paperdiscusses tools used to assist students with this project, examples of student chapter summaries(figs. 1 and 2) and the importance for engineering students to be able to read documents andsummarize important information in a graphically concise and relevant manner.Figure 1: Visualization types used to summarize chapter 1 (student work)Figure 2: Result of process and structure summary of chapter 1 (student work)
