Charts and graphs are a great way to visually represent data. They allow people to see numbers, information and many other types of data as an image. Charts and graphs help people understand information quickly and notice important patterns and relationships. There are several different kinds of charts and graphs such as pie, bar, line and column.
- How do we know when to use a certain type of chart or graph? Please comment to this post.
Using the data you received from your Pop Culture surveys, you will have to create at least 4 different charts and graphs. You might create a graph comparing the responses of boys and girls or maybe a chart showing the percentages of people who play different video game systems.
To create your charts, use the same spreadsheet that all of your survey responses are in. Follow these directions:
- Under all of your responses, type in the information for your chart (eg. Video Game Systems, # of students) and your data (numbers).
- Highlight all of your information for your chart
- Click on INSERT, then CHART
- Choose the chart you want to use
- Type in the Chart Title
- Type in the categories for the horizontal and vertical axises
- Click on SAVE CHART
