3. Visit the Axia College Writing Resources Website to access the "Preparing Effective Charts and Graphs" tutorial. This tutorial will provide you with guidance on how to create charts and graphs that effectively communicate your data and support your arguments.
4. Read Chapter 1 of Axia College's Writing Style Handbook to understand the best practices for incorporating visuals into your research paper. This chapter will provide advice on how to properly format and cite visuals in your paper.
5. Consider your topic, which is "freedom of speech." Think about the different types of statistics, graphs, and illustrations that would be appropriate for this topic. For example, you might use statistics on the number of freedom of speech cases in different countries, graphs showing the correlation between restrictions on freedom of speech and levels of democracy, or illustrations depicting famous historic moments related to freedom of speech.
6. Determine where these visuals would fit most effectively in your paper. Think about the points you want to illustrate or support with data and consider where in the text it would make the most sense to include these visuals. For example, if you are discussing the history of freedom of speech, you might include an illustration of a famous speech or a graph showing the timeline of key events.
7. Write a sentence to introduce each visual within the context of your paper. These sentences should provide a brief description of the visual and explain how it strengthens your argument. Refer to the examples in the reading "Incorporating Statistics, Graphs, and Illustrations" for guidance on how to write these introductions effectively.
8. Develop the visuals you plan to use in your research paper. Use the appropriate software to create tables, design graphs, or find relevant illustrations. Be sure to properly format and label each visual, and provide a clear title and source for each.
