- 5. TABLES A table shows information (facts and figures) that are organized and arranged in columns and rows. It is used to show patterns and relationships that still appeals to the readers’ verbal system, meaning tables are supposed to be read like a text (Nussbaumer, 2011). It is also used for “rapid access to and relatively easy comparison of information” (McMurrey, 2017).
- 6. TABLES McMurrey (2017) provided two important headings in making a table: column headings are found on top of the columns and are used to identify the contents of a specific column; row headings used to define or identify the contents of a specific row.).
- 7. Title of the Table Column Headings Row Headings
- 8. The table provides a comparison of the percentage of people who used the different features of their mobile phones (row headings) in three different years (column headings)
- 9. GRAPHS is defined by Google Sites (n.d.) as a “chart that shows the relationship between changing things”. Mind Tools Content Team (2020) stated that graphs are used “when a simple table cannot adequately demonstrate important relationships” of and within data. In addition, Nussbaumer (2011) said that graphs are “particularly useful when there is a point to be made in the shape of the data”.
- 10. There are four common types of graphs: • bar graph, • line graph, • pie graph, and • pictograph.
- 11. Bar graphs show data that are independent from each other but are somehow still related. • uses either vertical or horizontal bars to show the data it represents. • bars do not touch each other
- 12. The height of the bar indicates the value it represents: the longer the bar, the higher the value it represents, the shorter the bar, the lower the value it represents.
