Statistical graphs have been widely used as the
medium to spread information to the public. Therefore, the
Ministry of Education is emphasizing on this topic as early as
Standard 3. The learning process regarding this topic have
been continuously done up to university level. There were
various parts of study in statistics lesson with one of it was on
statistical graph which mostly focused on the interpretation
skills. Therefore, statistical graph interpretation skills among
the teachers have been highly demanded to help them while
conducting their lessons on this topic. This study had been
conducted to look at how pre service teachers interpret a bar
graph represented to them. At the same time, we have looked
at how the participants did their interpretations based on the
mean value which was also given in the questions. In order to
fulfil our objectives we conducted 30 to 45 minutes interview
sessions with five participants. All of our participants are pre
service teachers who are at their last year of their studies at
one of teachers training college (IPG) in Malaysia. An
interview session was done personally with each one of them.
Based on our findings, we have determined that there are four
graphs interpretation skills that had been used when our
participants did their interpretation of a bar graph given. We
have also determined that the participants of this study have
understood the effect of mean value to the set of data
represented by the given bar graph. This proves that all of
them did not face too much problem while doing the graph
interpretations. At the same time, our participants could also
determine the impact of outliers to the mean value of the data.
