5. Charting Data: How to Create Visual Displays to Enhance Decision-Making
- ChartDog 'Classic'. This free charting application is web-based. Data is stored (as a static web page) on the user’s computer.The app allows the user to enter up to 2 data series (e.g., reading fluency, reading errors) on one student graph, add an unlimited number of data points, and create an unlimited number of different chart phases. The app includes data-analysis tools, including the ability to calculate trendlines for each data phase.t There is also a ChartDog 'Classic' Manual.
- Excel Spreadsheet: Student Progress-Monitoring Graph: Single Intervention Phase. This graph has no macros (custom computer code). It allows you to enter data for baseline and one intervention phase. The graph also will compute a trendline to plot the average rate of student progress during the intervention phase. There is no limit on the number of intervention data points that you can plot.
- Excel Spreadsheet: Student Progress-Monitoring Graph: Three Intervention Phases. This graph allows you to enter data for baseline and up to 3 intervention phases. It also will compute an aimline/goal line and trendline for each intervention phase. Note: Because this file contains macros (custom computer code), your computer may not allow you to run it or may require that you change your security settings before it will run properly.
- ChartDog Online Graphmaker. This free online application allows the user to enter student data for an unlimited number of intervention phases, to plot aimlines and trendlines for each data series, and to save charts for later updating. This application does require more effort to learn than the excel files above, so you may also want to check out the ChartDog Manual.
