Analysing data – exercise – suggestions on things to select

The final choice is yours but remember yo have two pieces of data and only 20 minutes and 150 words so you HAVE to BE SELECTIVE

 

 

 

There are two pieces of data so you MUST mention both.

 

In the table the significant things are:

 

1st column

• Australian football injuries
• squash
• volleyball
• The others can be groups if need be as they are similar

 

2nd column

• this is the same only expressed as a% so you can use the figures but don;t need to make any specific mention

 

3rd column

very significant

 

• Australian football versus Rugby – although there are more injuries in Australian football they don’t often need hospital treatment unlike Rugby which has a high number of admissions to hospital
• Again Martial Arts and volleyball have the lowest figures

 

4th column

This doesn’t really add anything as all the numbers are about the same. You could just talk about a range and use the highest and lowest figures or leave it out altogether

 

Picture

This is really a pie chart

• ankle – highest
• knees – lowest
• the others are about the same so can be grouped
