Discussing graphs and maps

a. Explain types of graphs!

There are many different types of graphs, each with its own purpose. Some of the most
common types of graphs include:

 Bar graphs: Bar graphs are used to compare different categories of data. The height of each
bar represents the value of the data for that category.
 Line graphs: Line graphs are used to show trends over time. The line connects the data points
for each time period.
 Pie charts: Pie charts are used to show the proportion of each category in a dataset. The pie is
divided into slices, with the size of each slice representing the proportion of the data for that
category.
 Scatter plots: Scatter plots are used to show the relationship between two variables. Each data
point is plotted as a dot on the graph, and the position of the dot represents the value of each
variable for that data point.

b. What are differences between Pictograph, Map Charts, and Infographic?

 Pictographs: Pictographs are visual representations of data that use symbols or images to
represent the data. They are often used to make data more engaging and easier to understand.
 Map charts: Map charts are graphs that are superimposed on a map. They are used to show
the distribution of data over a geographical area.
 Infographics: Infographics are visual representations of data that use a variety of graphical
elements, such as charts, graphs, and images. They are often used to communicate complex
information in a concise and easy-to-understand way.

c. Why is infographic more promising and preferable in the current digital era? Elaborate
your answers!

Infographics are more promising and preferable in the current digital era for several reasons:
 They are visually appealing and engaging. Infographics use a variety of graphical elements to
capture attention and make data more interesting to look at.
 They are easy to understand. Infographics break down complex information into smaller,
more manageable chunks and use visuals to make it easier to grasp.
 They are shareable. Infographics are easy to share on social media and other online platforms,
which helps to spread information and increase awareness.

In addition to these advantages, infographics are also well-suited to the current digital era
because they can be easily viewed and shared on a variety of devices, including smartphones
and tablets.

Here are some specific examples of how infographics can be used in the current digital era:

 To communicate news and information: Infographics can be used to provide a concise and
easy-to-understand overview of complex news stories.
 To promote products and services: Infographics can be used to highlight the features and
benefits of products and services.
 To educate and inform: Infographics can be used to explain complex concepts in a clear and
concise way.
 To engage with customers and potential customers: Infographics can be used to create a more
engaging and interactive experience for customers and potential customers.
