About this EpisodeIn today’s episode, I sit down with Naaz Sibia, a CS PhD student from University of Toronto, to explore the role of visualization tools in computing education. Naaz helps us understand the concept of visualization for CS Education, shares how visualizations can be applied to learn different themes of computing concepts, and we explore how she has navigated the challenges that face CS educators and curriculum design.In this episode, you'll learn:The importance of visualization in computing educationEngagement and teaching methods in visualizationApplications of visualization in algorithms and dataCognitive load and attention in learningEnhancing online learning with visual toolsCritical thinking and problem solving through visualizationAbout the guestNaaz Sibia is a Ph.D. student in Computer Science at the University of Toronto (UofT), co-supervised by Professors Carolina Nobre and Michael Liut. Her research focuses on using interactive visualizations to improve introductory programming education, enhancing student belonging and engagement online, and exploring the role of reflective prompts in flipped classrooms.Where to find Naaz SibiaWebsite: https://www.naazsibia.com/ Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/naaz-sibia/ Google Scholar: https://scholar.google.ca/citations?user=r60zG3UAAAAJ&hl=en&oi=aoPapers referenced:Exploring the Role of Visualization Tools in Enhancing Computing Education: A Systematic Literature Review https://scholar.google.ca/citations?view_op=view_citation&hl=en&user=r60zG3UAAAAJ&sortby=pubdate&citation_for_view=r60zG3UAAAAJ:_kc_bZDykSQC SQLVis paper: https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/9576431 Tools referenced:https://algorithm-visualizer.org/ https://blog.levelupcoding.com/ About the podcastYou can watch the full episode on Youtube.
