Period 7 Assignment for May 3rd
These are links to your graphs. Look through all of the graphs. Compile a list of at least 10 conclusions you can draw from these graphs. Five of the conclusions need to be about you personally.
HINTS:
Conclusions are not spitting back information represented in the graph. I want you to draw your own conclusions.
Example of a conclusion personal to you......I do not plan on going to college when I graduate. However, I plan on completing a certification in supervision. In Kokomo the outlook for job growth is -4%. If I am going to live in Kokomo, I need to think about another career choice. If I still get the certification I had planned on, I need to find a city that has a positive outlook for job growth.
Bolded sentences in the example above would count as 2 personal conclusions.
