This chapter explains how to create and embed 2D and 3D charts. They can also be interactive or static ones and we will insert them in our Moodle courses. Though we are going to work mainly with Open Office Spreadsheet, we will include diverse tools and techniques that are also present. The main idea is to display data in charts and provide students with the necessary information for their activities.

We also work with a variety of charts, and deal with statistics as a baseline topic in this chapter. We can either develop a chart or work with ready-to-use data. We could avoid the math section. However, you could design this in your Moodle course together with a math teacher.

When thinking of statistics, we generally have the picture of a chart in mind and some percentages representing the reading of the said chart. We can change that paradigm and create a different way to draw and read statistics in our Moodle course. We design charts with drawings, links to websites, and other interesting items.

We can also redesign the charts with numbers with different assets because we want to enrich and strengthen the diversity of the material for our Moodle course. Thus, some students are not keen on numbers and dislike activities with them. So, let's give another chance to statistics!

There are different types of graphics to show statistics. Therefore, we show a variety of tools available to display different results. No matter what our subject is, we can include this type of graphics in our Moodle course.

You can use these graphics to help your students give weight to their arguments and express themselves using key points clearly. We teach students, within our subject, to include graphics and read them using them as a tool of communication. Reading charts will broaden their minds.

We can also work with puzzles. That is to say we can invent a graph and give tips or clues to our students so that they can sort out which are the percentages belonging to the chart. In other words, we can create a listening comprehension activity, a reading comprehension one, or a math problem. We just upload or embed the chart, create an appealing activity, and give clues to our students so that they can think of the items belonging to the chart.
