Lesson#1
Welcome to this deck on graphical skills for GCSE Geography. Being able to select, draw, and interpret graphs is essential for your exams. You'll use these skills to analyse data, spot patterns, and support your arguments in both physical and human geography topics.
Lesson#2
Choosing the right graph starts with understanding your data. Data can be continuous, meaning it can take any value on a scale, like temperature or time. Or it can be discrete, meaning it can only take specific, separate values, like the number of houses in a street.
Quiz#3
In geography, what type of data can take any value on a scale, such as temperature or height?

continuous data

Quiz#4
What is the term for data that can only take specific, separate values, such as the number of people in a household?

discrete data

Lesson#5
Line graphs are perfect for showing changes in continuous data over time. For example, you could plot how a river's discharge changes over several hours after a storm. When drawing any graph in your exam, remember the acronym SALT, which stands for Scale, Axes, Labels, and Title.
Quiz#6
For which type of data, measured over time, is a line graph the most appropriate choice?

continuous data
