Are you looking for technical information, or design information?

For design ideas, I highly recommend the books by Edward Tufte, e.g. The Visual Display of Quantitative Information. More at https://www.edwardtufte.com/tufte/ You may also get some good ideas here: https://informationisbeautiful.net/

If you are wondering how to create graphics from data, there are a number of tools-- I usually use R, but most statistical packages offer visualization tools.

I hope this helps,

Elizabeth

Hi Jessie,

You may wish to check out IntelliBoard, which provides very pleasing data and aesthetics for Moodle. It has a free Level 0 version.

Best,
