Description:Combining reflection and trails is becoming an important issue. The importance of reflection to the learning processes has been recognized for a long time. With the advent of digital learning environments, it becomes possible to record 'raw' trails of experience. If these are visualized to the learner, the possibilities for reflection on the experience are extended.

In this workshop we would like to discuss these questions together with other people who are involved in or have an interest in visualizing trails as a means for fostering reflection. At the same time, we hope to gather knowledge and experiences that we are not aware of. We would like to invite participants to take their own log files and perhaps existing visualizations with them, and that we work together on creating visualizations, or analyzing existing visualizations. The workshop will be built around case studies of visualizations, which are provided by both organizers and participants.
