ANALYSING AND CREATING CHARTS AND
GRAPHICS
„NEW LITERACY SET” PROJECT
Graphs and charts are great
because they communicate
information visually.
For this reason, graphs are often
used in newspapers, magazines
and businesses around the world.
Let’s have a look an example:
Presentation of gender statistics in
graphs
ThingLink: goo.gl/vBjNNh
GRAPHS AND CHARTS
BAR GRAPHS
Are those employing rectangles (bars) that are placed in parallel. The height indicates the frequency of that data.
Bar charts allow numerical information in a clear and orderly manner, to communicate it to others. With the
information displayed on graphs you can quickly and visually interpret the information, facilitating further
analysis.
A bar graph is useful for comparing facts. The bars provide a visual display for comparing quantities in different
categories. Bar graphs help us to see relationships quickly. Another name for a bar graph is a bar chart. Each part
of a bar graph has a purpose.
To construct a bar graph, you must draw a vertical and horizontal axes. In free space the bar is located. Numerical
data are on the vertical axis (determining the height of the bars) and the categories in the horizontal axis.
BAR GRAPHS
Example 1: A survey of students' favorite after-school activities was conducted at a school. The table below shows
the results of this survey.
A bar graph is useful for comparing facts. The bars provide a visual display for comparing quantities in different
categories. Bar graphs help us to see relationships quickly. Another name for a bar graph is a bar chart. Each part of a
bar graph has a purpose.
Title: The title tells us what the graph is about.
Labels: The labels tell us what kinds of facts are listed.
Bars: The bars show the facts.
grid lines: Grid lines are used to create the scale.
Categories: Each bar shows a quantity for a particular
category.
LINE GRAPHS
It is a set of points connected by a line in a Cartesian system, showing a variable trends over a period of time. For
this reason, a line graph is useful in displaying data or information that changes continuously over time. The points
on a line graph are connected by a line. Another name for a line graph is a line chart.
LINE GRAPHS Let's define the various parts of a line graph.
Title: The title of the line graph tells us what
the graph is about.
Labels: The horizontal label across the bottom
and the vertical label along the side tells us
what kinds of facts are listed.
Scales: The horizontal scale across the bottom
and the vertical scale along the side tell us
how much or how many.
Points: The points or dots on the graph show
us the facts.
Lines: The lines connecting the points give
estimates of the values between the points.
CIRCLE GRAPH/PIE CHART
It is a circle diagram that visually represents information into
imaginary slices of cake. A circle graph, or a pie chart, is used to
visualize information and data. A circle graph is usually used to
easily show the results of an investigation in a proportional
manner. The arcs of a circle graph are proportional to how
many percent of population gave a certain answer.
Reading a pie chart is as easy as figuring out which slice of an
actual pie is the biggest. Usually, you have several bits of data,
and each is pictured on the pie chart as a pie slice. You will see
that some data have larger slices than others. So you can easily
decipher which data is more important to your audience than
others.

INTERPRETING THE INFORMATION
To interpret the information given through graphs, you can follow the following methodology:
- Reading the title of the chart or table. We know what it is before we start to analyse it.
- Read the data. There will be a literal reading of the graph or table.
- Read among data. Interpretation and integration of data or graphics board.
- Reading beyond the data. Can you make a prediction based on the data in the graph or table?
QUESTION
1. What is the title of this bar graph?
2. What is the range of values on the (horizontal) scale?
3. How many categories are in the graph?
4. Which after-school activity do students like most?
5. Which after-school activity do students like least?
6. How many students like to talk on the phone?
7. How many students like to earn money?
8. Which two activities are liked almost equally?
9. List the categories in the graph from greatest to least.

  • 3. BAR GRAPHS Are those employing rectangles (bars) that are placed in parallel. The height indicates the frequency of that data. Bar charts allow numerical information in a clear and orderly manner, to communicate it to others. With the information displayed on graphs you can quickly and visually interpret the information, facilitating further analysis. A bar graph is useful for comparing facts. The bars provide a visual display for comparing quantities in different categories. Bar graphs help us to see relationships quickly. Another name for a bar graph is a bar chart. Each part of a bar graph has a purpose. To construct a bar graph, you must draw a vertical and horizontal axes. In free space the bar is located. Numerical data are on the vertical axis (determining the height of the bars) and the categories in the horizontal axis.
  • 4. BAR GRAPHS Example 1: A survey of students' favorite after-school activities was conducted at a school. The table below shows the results of this survey.

Another name for a bar graph is a bar chart. Each part of a bar graph has a purpose. Title: The title tells us what the graph is about. Labels: The labels tell us what kinds of facts are listed. Bars: The bars show the facts. grid lines: Grid lines are used to create the scale. Categories: Each bar shows a quantity for a particular category.
  • 6. LINE GRAPHS It is a set of points connected by a line in a Cartesian system, showing a variable trends over a period of time. For this reason, a line graph is useful in displaying data or information that changes continuously over time. The points on a line graph are connected by a line. Another name for a line graph is a line chart.
  • 7. LINE GRAPHS Let's define the various parts of a line graph. Title: The title of the line graph tells us what the graph is about. Labels: The horizontal label across the bottom and the vertical label along the side tells us what kinds of facts are listed. Scales: The horizontal scale across the bottom and the vertical scale along the side tell us how much or how many. Points: The points or dots on the graph show us the facts. Lines: The lines connecting the points give estimates of the values between the points.
  • 8. CIRCLE GRAPH/PIE CHART It is a circle diagram that visually represents information into imaginary slices of cake. A circle graph, or a pie chart, is used to visualize information and data. A circle graph is usually used to easily show the results of an investigation in a proportional manner. The arcs of a circle graph are proportional to how many percent of population gave a certain answer. Reading a pie chart is as easy as figuring out which slice of an actual pie is the biggest. Usually, you have several bits of data, and each is pictured on the pie chart as a pie slice. You will see that some data have larger slices than others. So you can easily decipher which data is more important to your audience than others.

  • 13. INTERPRETING THE INFORMATION To interpret the information given through graphs, you can follow the following methodology: - Reading the title of the chart or table. We know what it is before we start to analyse it. - Read the data. There will be a literal reading of the graph or table. - Read among data. Interpretation and integration of data or graphics board. - Reading beyond the data. Can you make a prediction based on the data in the graph or table?
