Can the back row explain your chart?
- Your slide has correct numbers, but the audience cannot read the labels. Correct content still needs a usable presentation.
- Choose one main message and the evidence needed to understand it. Put detailed explanations in notes or a handout.
Let the title state a supported message
- Bullet points 要点 can cue the speaker; they do not need to reproduce the whole script. Keep connected information together when it supports one main idea.
- “18 of 30 respondents used the bus” states the finding. “Everyone prefers buses” goes beyond the data and changes a travel method into a preference.
Your slide combines a class travel chart with an unrelated school lunch menu. What is the best revision? · Votre diapositive combine un graphique de transport de classe avec un menu de repas scolaires sans rapport. Quelle est la meilleure révision ?
One main message helps listeners follow the evidence. Related supporting detail can stay together. · Un message principal aide les auditeurs à suivre la preuve. Les détails secondaires connexes peuvent rester groupés.
For a class sample of 30 respondents, 18 used the bus. Replace the title “Bus routes” with a supported finding. · Pour un échantillon de 30 répondants, 18 ont utilisé le bus. Remplacez le titre « Trajets de bus » par une conclusion validée.
Example: “Bus travel was most common in our class sample”. Travel method does not by itself establish preference. · Exemple : « Le voyage en bus était le plus fréquent dans notre échantillon ». Le mode de transport seul n'établit pas nécessairement une préférence.
Choose the display for the question
- A table helps readers look up exact values; a chart helps compare values or see a pattern. Label the measure, units and source.
- For 30 fictional respondents: bus 18, walking 8, cycling 4. Start a bar chart at zero so bar lengths show the counts fairly.
Useful title: “Bus travel was most common in our sample”. Say aloud: “18 of our 30 respondents used the bus. This is a class sample, not a city-wide result.” Keep the sample size visible.
You want classmates to compare three travel-method counts quickly. Which display fits? · Vous souhaitez que vos camarades comparent rapidement les décomptes de trois méthodes de transport. Quel affichage convient ?
Bar lengths support count comparisons when labels and the baseline are clear. · La longueur des barres permet de comparer les effectifs lorsque les étiquettes et l'axe horizontal sont clairs.
Explaining a chart aloud makes visible measure labels and units unnecessary. · Expliquer un graphique à voix haute rend superflus les étiquettes de mesure et les unités écrites.
Provide readable labels and an audible explanation. Different audience members need different ways to access the information. · Fournir des lég lisibles et une explication orale. Différents membres du public ont besoin de modes d'accès différents aux informations.
How many of the 30 respondents walked or cycled? · Combien de répondants sur 30 ont marché ou fait du vélo ?
Walking 8 plus cycling 4 gives 12 respondents. · Marcher (8) plus faire du vélo (4) donne 12 répondants.
Test readability in the actual room
- Contrast · Contraste 对比度 means enough difference between foreground and background. Both dark text on light and light text on dark can work; avoid using colour alone to distinguish groups.
- Try a simple sans-serif 无衬线 font and large text as a starting point. Test labels and source notes from the back row on the real projector; no single font size guarantees readability.
Which are useful checks for your projected slide? Select all that apply. · Quels sont les contrôles utiles pour votre diapositive projetée ? Sélectionnez toutes les options applicables.
Size, contrast and projection conditions affect readability. Labels or shapes must also convey distinctions. · La taille, le contraste et les conditions de projection affectent la lisibilité. Les étiquettes ou les formes doivent également transmettre les distinctions.
Credit evidence without hiding it
- Put a short source beside the borrowed chart or image and full details in a reference list 参考文献列表. Check reuse permission separately; a citation does not grant it.
- Label your own data as your own, with sample size and collection context. Describe important visual information aloud for people who cannot see it clearly.
Selecting only the largest categories may hide part of the picture. If you combine small categories, label “other” and explain what it includes. Never omit values just to strengthen your message.
Match each audience need to an appropriate response. · Associez chaque besoin du public à une réponse appropriée.
Display choice, spoken explanation and source detail solve different problems. · Le choix de l'affichage, l'explication orale et les détails de la source résolvent des problèmes différents.
Review the message, evidence and access
- Ask a partner to state the finding after viewing the slide. If they cannot, revise the title, labels or layout rather than shrinking the text.
- Make one slide from the sample data. Check its claim, all three categories, baseline, source note and readability before rehearsing.
Use a supported message, a suitable display and readable evidence. Explain the visual aloud and supply accessible materials where needed.
Further guidance: W3C accessible presentations.
A slide omits cycling (4) so the bus seems more dominant. What should you change? · Une diapositive omet le vélo (4), ce qui fait paraître le bus plus dominant. Que devriez-vous modifier ?
Omission can distort the picture. Preserve the full relevant comparison and explain any grouping. · L'omission peut fausser l'image. Conserver la comparaison pertinente complète et expliquer tout regroupement.
