comparing data displays using mean, median and range to describe and interpret numerical data sets in terms of centre and spread using histograms, dot plots or stem-and-leaf plots
-
choosing the type of representations based on the data type: categorical (nominal or ordinal) or numerical (discrete or continuous)
-
using different visualisations of data, including non-standard representations such as infographics, and discussing their purpose and intended audience, and evaluating how well they communicate responses to statistical questions of interest
-
comparing and interpreting stacked bar charts, area charts and line graphs, discussing how they represent larger categories that can be subdivided into smaller categories and how information that can be obtained from these displays can be used for comparison
