Integrating Charts and Graphs into your Research Report




Charts, graphs, and infographics enhance information, particularly information involving numbers or statistics.

These visuals can be useful for tracking information and helping readers see and compare relevant information easily.

Charting Information


Placing numbers and their meanings in tables can be a great way to illustrate tracking of expenses for a report or showing other numbers or information where numerical values are being ranked and compared.

Often, you can use tables within a word processing program or something such as Microsoft Excel to achieve the same effect.
