“…O segundo método usado continuamente ao longo do projeto foi o mapeamento mental. Segundo Tajali et al (2021), o mapeamento mental cria uma rede de informações, identificação e construção de relacionamentos de ideias cruciais. O pesquisador considerou isso uma parte essencial do processo, pois permitia que ideias vitais fossem reunidas e organizadas em um só lugar.…”

This article discusses a graphic design project about unsustainable habits around the home and their effects on climate change. The article reflects on practice-led design research, asking: How can graphic design be used to provoke young adults to make positive changes towards their unsustainable consumer habits in their homes? The design project entitled: Second Nature - is an awareness campaign that combines the researcher’s passion for environmental sustainability and creative practice as a way of expression through graphic design conventions. The project responded to the research question with a communication campaign, consisting of a series of design artefacts, including a poster series, a zine set, social media presence and a website. The artefacts allow the audience to consider the negative impact their habits cause, providing ways to make small changes towards a more sustainable lifestyle. In conducting the study, reflective and heuristic enquiry was utilised as an approach to problem-solving. In the enquiry, the project employed methods such as contextual review of knowledge, mind mapping, sketching and mock-ups to ideate, reflect and test. The article adopts a commentary on practice and evidences the design decisions to the context, including how the artefacts engage with the audience. The research contributes to the current discourses about climate change in a world dominated by consumerism, proposing and unpacking how an awareness campaign can be used as a tool to combat the depletion of our greater home, earth.

“…Wang, Zhang, et al (2020) constructed a knowledge map of university physics based on a mind map of university physics, in which an expert questionnaire and natural language analysis method were adopted to obtain the importance of knowledge-points. A mind map is an approach to the organization of the human mind that prepares the ground for thinking (Baghestani et al, 2021). Though previous studies represent outstanding achievements, there are still some shortcomings to be addressed.…”

As students in online courses usually show differences in their cognitive levels and lack communication with teachers, it is difficult for teachers to grasp student perceptions of the importance of knowledge-points and to develop personalized teaching. Though recent studies have paid attention to this topic, existing methods fail to calculate the importance of every knowledge-point for each student. Moreover, some studies are based on expert analysis, are not data-driven, and hence are inapplicable to large-scale online scenarios. To address these issues, this article proposes a personal topic rank (PTR) as a solution, which links students and concepts to generate a personalized knowledge concept map. Then, the authors present a novel PTR method to calculate the importance of knowledge-points, wherein student mastery of knowledge-points, student understanding, and the knowledge-point itself are considered simultaneously. This article conducts extensive experiments on a real-world dataset to demonstrate that the method can achieve better results than baselines.
