When a user is engaged in sensemaking using a media, the user's work involves navigating to previously visited view places in the workspace. To achieve this, a workspace is navigated by obtaining a history list that may include a degree of interest and/or location information related to previous view places, and navigating the workspace based on the history list. The workspace may be further navigated by retrieving the location information related to one of the previous view places from the history list, and displaying the previous places based on the location information. The history list may be constructed by detecting an activity in a current view place, determining a degree of interest of the current view place based on the activity, and storing the degree of interest and the location information.
