Visualization evaluation has been addressed by many, where many of those techniques and algorithms can be objectively measured the visual work. The most recognize path from those techniques is recognition for a subjective measurements necessary to complete the evaluation of visualization work effectiveness. Such forms of subjective measurement are not just important for the instructor’s assessment of students, but the students also need the ability to critically evaluate a visualization (Friedman & Rosen (2017)). We developed the visual peer review and its rubric to provide an alternative to visualization assessment in the classroom and professional environments.
