本研究以32位大学生为研究对象，探讨他们在撰写两份作业报告时，如何运用图表来进行规划。对于这两份报告，学生们被要求提交一份他们将要写的图表计划。在他们的第一个计划之前，没有提供关于如何使用图表进行规划的说明。然而，在第二个计划之前，学生们得到了关于使用素描笔记的指导，这是一种创建视觉笔记和组织想法的方法。对于第一个计划，只有31%的人实际上提交了一个图表计划，大多数人提交了一个基于文本的计划。然而，对于第二个计划，提交图表计划的比例增加到66%，但他们也报告说，与提交文本计划的人相比，他们在创建计划时遇到了更大的困难。学生的计划和报告的各种质量特征进行了评分，分析显示，对于第二份报告，图表计划比文本计划有更好的逻辑结构。更重要的是，第二个报告创建的图表计划也被发现有一个更好的逻辑结构比那些创建的文本计划。调查结果表明，许多学生需要指导，能够创建图解计划，但创建这样的计划可以帮助他们的书面工作的结构。
In this study, we investigated 32 undergraduate university students’ use of diagrams in planning to write two coursework reports. For both reports, the students were asked to submit a diagrammatic plan for what they were going to write. Prior to their first plan, no instruction was provided about how to use diagrams for planning. However, prior to the second plan, the students were provided instruction on the use of sketchnoting, which is one method for creating visual notes and organizing ideas. For the first plan, only 31% actually submitted a diagram plan, with the majority submitting a text-based plan. However, for the second plan, the proportion who submitted a diagram plan increased to 66%, but they also reported experiencing more difficulty in creating their plans compared to those who submitted text-based plans. The students’ plans and reports were scored for various quality features, analysis of which revealed that, for the second report, diagram plans had a better logical structure than text plans. More importantly, second reports created with diagram plans were also found to have a better logical structure than those created with text plans. The findings indicate that many students require instruction to be able to create diagrammatic plans, but that creating such plans can be helpful in structuring their written work.
