Retrieving Cognitive Chunks from Graphical Tablet Drawing

From Anita Borg Institute Wiki

Presenter: Unaizah Hanum Obaidellah (University of Sussex)

Investigation is made on the internal cognitive processes that occur in the working memory while drawing operations are performed based on a complex abstract diagram. The graphics tablet and inking pen are used to capture the drawings. Five participants performed drawings on tracing, copying, recall from immediate memory and recall from delayed memory. All participants' results converged on an approach that exploits chunks and the use of spatial schemas.
