Tables, pictograms and bar charts
infoWhy this? Tables, pictograms, and bar charts organise information so that frequencies, categories, and comparisons can be understood clearly. Constructing and interpreting these representations helps us communicate findings accurately and recognise potentially misleading displays.
scheduleWhy now? Having considered how data is selected and collected, we begin to organise and represent it. These accessible displays establish conventions for labels, scales, and frequencies that support the wider range of representations taught next.
