Common Charts for Museum Evaluators [DOWNLOAD]

I'm often asked about how to choose the right chart for your data viz. The right chart depends on the type of data you have and what key takeaway you want to highlight most. I've made a reference sheet of the charts that I use most often in my evaluation work, mostly for audience research and program evaluation in informal learning spaces like museums. I hope you'll download and enjoy! 🎉

This download includes a click-able PDF - Click each chart in the PDF to jump to an online tutorial for how to make your own from scratch. All in software you probably already know and use everyday - like PowerPoint, Excel, and Word. Includes all of the charts you see in the image.
