What We Will Recreate
3
First, copy the needed
tracker data into a
scratch workbook
© Relay Graduate School of Education. All rights reserved. 4
Copy This Tracker Data
This is from the
individual
assessment tabs.
Copy the columns
and put them
side-by-side
© Relay Graduate School of Education. All rights reserved. 5
Put It In A Scratch Workbook Like This
This is the data
we’ll need to
create the
graphic
© Relay Graduate School of Education. All rights reserved. 6
Sort The Data Once You’ve Copied It All
Notice that it
begins again
with
Assessment #2
as you move
down the data
Sort this data by
standards mastery,
lowest to highest for
each round of
assessment. That’s
how we’ll get the
bars to line up
nicely on our
graphical display.
7
Next, organize the data
so that Excel will make
the figure you want
© Relay Graduate School of Education. All rights reserved. 8
Organize The Data So It Looks Like This
Notice that
we’ve kept the
data sorted, but
put boys and
girls in different
columns
You’ll need the
data just like
this.
9
Now, highlight the
organized data and tell
Excel what kind of
graphical display you
want
© Relay Graduate School of Education. All rights reserved. 10
Highlight The Data
Highlight
ALL the
data,
including
column
headers
© Relay Graduate School of Education. All rights reserved. 11
To Make The Figure, Select The “Insert” Menu
Select “Insert”
and select “2-D
Column”
© Relay Graduate School of Education. All rights reserved. 12
That Gets Us This. We’re Getting Close!
© Relay Graduate School of Education. All rights reserved. 13
Go Ahead And Delete The Numbers Under The Axis
Just click on this
box and delete.
We don’t need
these numbers
keeping count
of data points.
© Relay Graduate School of Education. All rights reserved. 14
Scale The Axis Next. It Shouldn’t Go Up To 1.2, only 1.0
Right-click on
the vertical axis
© Relay Graduate School of Education. All rights reserved. 15
Scale The Axis Next. It Shouldn’t Go Up To 1.2, only 1.0
Change this to
1.0 from 1.2
© Relay Graduate School of Education. All rights reserved. 16
Then Make The Values Percentages, Not Numbers.
Change this to
percentage
17
Lastly, make the figure
accessible by adding
title, axis labels, etc.
© Relay Graduate School of Education. All rights reserved. 18
To Add Titles, Go To The “Layout” Menu
Select “Chart
Title” and pick
“Above Chart”
© Relay Graduate School of Education. All rights reserved. 19
Type In The Title
© Relay Graduate School of Education. All rights reserved. 20
To Add Axes Labels, Go To The “Layout” Menu
Select “Axes
Titles” and
select “Primary
Vertical Axis
Title” (Rotated)
© Relay Graduate School of Education. All rights reserved. 21
Type In The Vertical Axis Label
© Relay Graduate School of Education. All rights reserved. 22
Adding the A#1, A#2, A#3, and A#4 Is Tricky.
Select “Chart
Title” and pick
“Horizontal”
© Relay Graduate School of Education. All rights reserved. 23
Type In The Axis Label
You’ll type in an
axis label for
A#1
© Relay Graduate School of Education. All rights reserved. 24
Then Create Some Space For A#2 Label
You are tricking
Excel into
allowing you to
create your own
label for the
axis
© Relay Graduate School of Education. All rights reserved. 25
Then Create Some Space For A#3 Label
© Relay Graduate School of Education. All rights reserved. 26
Finally Create Some Space For A#4 Label
You may have to
manually slide
the axis over to
make sure the
labels align to
the columns
27
Well done!

  • #3 Say The next part of the data narrative is the “All Students” section.
