After reviewing quite a few student-graphed data projects I came up with this 6 item checklist that students could use before they hand in their graph:
- Is the information worth graphing?
- Labeling: title, legend, source, axes ?
- Congruence: Does your graph show what you are saying it shows?
- Tool choice: Is your graph the most effective way to show the information?
- Comparability: Are you comparing like entities – apples to apples?
- Context: Does your caption and oral description explain why what you are seeing is important?
