Factual Question
How can the primary data collected in the field be presented?
What forms of presentation are the most appropriate?
Activity One - Create - Graphs and Maps
For this section you need to convert the raw data that you collected in Geneva into a range of graphs. You should only use data that is directly relevant to your hypothesis. Try and illustrate a range of skills. It is entirely up to you what types of graphs you choose to use. The types of graphs that you could use (this list is not finite) include:
Bar graph
Composite bar chart
Flow maps
Isoline maps - digital through GIS
Line graph
Mapping - transect, bar, pictogram
Pie chart
Pictograms
Proportional circles on a map - digital through GIS
Scattergraphs
Activity Two - Create - Visual Evidence
You should also include visual evidence of what you saw. This could be in the form of sketch diagrams or photographs. Which ever method you chose you need to make sure you 'add value'. This means that they either need to be labelled or annotated and then referred to in the body of your analysis.Â
Remember every image needs a figure number and a title.
