Treffer: Work in Progress: Automatic Generation of Algorithm Animations for Lecture Slides

Abstract: Algorithm visualizations have not been widely adopted in teaching. One possible reason for this is that visualizations are often developed as standalone systems which can be difficult to integrate into lectures. Recently XML based formats for the two major presentation tools have been introduced. We present a method and a prototype implementation which allows creation of algorithm animations in the ODF format. This allows integrating the animation seamlessly within the lecture material.
