Abstract

The purpose of this chapter is to provide a basic understanding of how three-dimensional (3D) statistical visual displays aid in education. The chapter seeks to discuss the importance of surface objects, scenes, and environments reconstructed to enhance the interpretation of charts. Further described are the different types of 3D charts available: bar, line, and pie charts. The chapter also provides enlightenment about two new concepts: the “3D actual” and “3D obvious” charts. Overall, the chapter focuses on the theoretical background, pedagogical practice, usability, and applicability of using 3D surface charts. The chapter, in addition, provides explanations based on research done by Chikatla (2010), Dempsey, Chikatla, and Inpornvijit (2008), Fisher, Dempsey, and Marousky (1997), and Dempsey and Armstrong (1997).
