GCSE Coursework

Stage 3 - Presentation

When presenting your data you should also describe it. Try not to treat them as separate sections. For example, if you produce a scatter graph using Excel (TM) cut and paste it into a word processing package and describe it below.

You should attempt to use a wide range of appropriate techniques to present your data. For example use a range of graphs (bar/pie charts/scatter graphs etc.), maps (landuse/sketch map etc.), tables, photographs and statistical methods to present your data. Make sure the technique is appropriate. For example if you are trying to find out whether there is a relationship between two sets of data consider a scatter graph rather than two bar graphs.

Presenting Data

Photographs/field sketches
Make sure your annotate (label) all photographs and sketches you include in your project. This shows the examiner how you are using them. Without annotations your pictures/sketches are meaningless.

Graphs
Bar charts to show frequency, line graphs and scatter graphs to show correlations, pie charts and % bar graphs to show percentages.

Maps
Locational maps, choropleth maps, dot maps, distribution maps etc.

Tables
Listing data, grouping data and ranking data etc.

Include all your fieldwork notes/data in its original form. Do not
rewrite it. It is evidence that you completed the fieldwork for the project.
