I only ask because I just came back from a conference where David
Thornburg spoke, mentioning some research I hadn't heard previously
regarding the positive impact multiple views of the same data have on
student learning.

"Results suggest that having students practice with differently
formatted maps of the same information improves later comprehension of
standard contour maps. These findings have implications for teaching
complex graphics and for computer-assisted instruction design." --

As an aside, he and I had a great conversation about the origins of
the scrollbar at PARC, including his test wiring of a platten knob to
the side of a terminal to flip pages.
