Types of Graphs
There are three types of graphs you will see most often. Each type of graph is used for different reasons. No matter which type of graph you are reading, it will be important to read and understand the graph before you answer any questions about the graph.
Bar Graph
Bar graphs are used to compare information or look at information over time such as years. The graph we used earlier is an example of a vertical bar graph. It compares the percentage of money that elementary, high school, and college students spend on school related items.
Bar graphs can also be horizontal.
Pie Chart
Pie charts show percentages. If you add up all the percentages in a pie chart, the total would be 100%. Pie charts are very good for looking at the parts of a whole.
Pie charts are often in the shape of a circle, but they do not have to be a circle. Here is an example of two pie charts. One is a circle and one is not a circle.
The pie chart on the left shows the types of books sold in the United States. If you add up all the types of books, the total is 100%. The same is true for the "Cool Clothing" pie chart on the right. When added together, the top 5 labels are equal to 100%
It makes sense to use a pie chart to show this information. It wouldn’t be as easy to see the whole picture with a bar graph.
Appendix 7 presentations
A good way to make your presentations effective, interesting and easy to follow is to use signpost language. 'Signpost language' is the words and phrases that people use to tell the listener what has just happened, and what is going to happen next. In other words, signpost language guides the listener through the presentation. A good presenter will usually use a lot of signpost language, so it is a good idea to learn a few of the common phrases, even if you spend more time listening to presentations than giving them! Signpost language is usually fairly informal, so it is relatively easy to understand.
