RE: Graph Makeover: Educational Attainment by Race and Ethnicity

in #steemstem7 years ago

What I’ve found is that most of the graphs and tables given to management are not done very well, simply because many people are not aware of the difficulty of selecting and designing graphs, as well as the different types of graphs that are available, but not as common. It can take months to do it right and often requires a team of experts. Even then, we can get it wrong so we often have to go through several iterations after launch. In the organizations I work with, I have spent a lot of time training others to do this, because I cannot meet all of the needs. It can also be a challenge to get management to accept better graphs instead of the same ones they ar used to seeing.
