    Strengthening Visual Skills by Recognising Rendering Algorithms
    (The Eurographics Association, 2023) Wolfe, Rosalee; José Carlos Teixeira; Werner Hansmann; Michael B. McGrath
    Computer science students contemplating a career in graphics need to develop a visual sense, but traditional course topies do not meet this need. Visual analysis is a teaching technique developed for computer science instructors that helps impart this ability. Through the use of a few visual cues, students learn to visually identify surface algorithms, shaders and lighting techniques. An interactive software package called TERA (Tool for Exploring Rendering Algorithms) provides nearly a million image combinations that students can use to practice their visual identification skills.
