Description: The term professional vision was introduced by Goodwin (1994) to emphasize the idea that no vision--including scientific vision--is neutral; instead, vision is shaped by the specific activity in which the viewer is engaging. It can be defined as a visual perception that serves as a source for specific knowledge relevant to a professional activity.
