What is an Overview?
An overview is simply a summary of the main things you can see.
Because the overview is so important, I recommend putting it at the beginning of your report, just after the introduction sentence.
I write two overview sentences. A one-sentence overview isn't really enough.
Try not to include specific numbers in the overview. Save the specifics for later paragraphs.
Look at the 'big picture' e.g. the overall change from the first year to the last year (if years are shown on the chart), the differences between whole categories rather than single numbers, or the total number of stages in a process.
Look at the following Line Graph and try writing a two sentence Overview and post it in the "Post Your Comments" section.
