What do we need to know?

Creating Data DisplaysData Displays help us analyze and communicate data

Considerations:

What question are you trying to answer?

What type of data are you trying to display?

How is your audience used to seeing data of the same type?

Does the display/graphic accurately represent the data?

Finding just the right fitPoor fitting data displays can cause problems

Miscommunication

Inaccurate analysis and interpretation

Poor decision-making

Damages your credibility

Many others you can’t anticipate

Example 1: It Just doesn’t add up

Example 2: Scale Matters

Example 3: But it looks so pretty

Example 4: Getting in your own way

Six Common Errors In Displaying Data

6. The display uses graphic effects without purpose:

Time to Give it a try 1. You will examine a contrived dataset

2. Determine the type of data you are working with

3. Determine what aspect of the data you would like to analyze and/or communicate

4. Create a graph that is appropriately fit to the data

You will need the Data Coach sample dataset

Points to keep in mind Actually constructing a graph is a secondary skill for today

The primary goal of this activity is to match a dataset to a method of display that accurately represents the data

This is not supposed to be a deep lesson in Excel

It is easier to learn what buttons to push than it is to learn how to accurately analyze and evaluate a dataset – YES, even for those of you that don’t consider yourself “tech savvy.”

Scaled Group Inventory & Self -Assessment Inventory

Maintain and a groups’s present feedback practices

Self-assessment questions that stimulate deep reflection about personal choices and behaviors

Help groups and group members understand who they are in light of who they want to be
