Greetings Everyone! Today we're going 
to use the online web 2.0 tool called Online ChartTool
which is used to create
graphical models
and data displays online free of charge.  So we have a task today
thats included in your handouts
of the Richland 2 AP Calculus AB final
grade distribution.
And, our task today is to use this online chart tool
to create a pie chart. So, we're assuming that
all viewers have created an online chartTool account.  And, if you have, we're going to proceed.
So here is the opening page
of the online chart tool.  As you can see there are
five headings up here.  These are actually the five essential
steps to creating those charts that you desire to create.
So, we're going to go in this order. So we're going to create a pie chart.
in this particular task. So, I'm going to click
"Pie".
I'm going to leave the type on "Normal".   You can go with the
doughnut or transparent view
if you like. And, it's important that I
change my
background color to white and the appearance
you can choose whatever dimension you want.  I like the 3-D image.
And the positioning of your legend... to
the left, top, bottom, or
right of the graphic. I'm going to leave all the
other settings alone.  And I chose
not to have round corners. So, we can
proceed
by clicking NEXT.  And, here is the most involved part
where you have to enter the data.  The table that you see on the handout...
That's going to allow us to enter the data
that we need
and if you have a CSV file that you would like to import data, you can 
do that as well which is a nifty tool.  But,
we can
give this graph a title: AP Calculus AB
final grades and we can change the background
blue and to white and I chose blue and white for the theme of 
Richland Two colors. And, the font size is going to be 17.
Data Set:  We have five letter grades to enter.
So, I chose
to increase the default entry from 1 up to 5
and enter this data.  You can also customize the colors of each slice
which is nice for readability of the
display
OK.. so that's what adding data will do.
We'll click NEXT.  Fonts, we can show the labels that we have
It's important that I place the labels
of each slice outside the slice
for readability purposes and I'm going
to
keep the font at 14. 
Now this format....if you're worried about
what format you want to go to
you can select if you want just a
percentage shown
, but I would like to have the item
which is the left column ABCDF and the
percentage.
we can change the fonts and the colors as well and the size.
And, I 'll keep all of these defaults the same because I don't want it
to take away from the title's text
Click next.  And now, you can see a preview of it and
you can choose between three different
sizes: small, medium, or large.
If you make a mistake, you can always go
back any of these
labels and make changes.
Last, but not least, we want  to save this work. You can always download
the chart and the data into any of these four file formats.
But, because we have created an account, this is beautiful.
I can save the chart and data to
edit it later.   As you can see, the
chart has been saved.
and when you click on ACCOUNT, all of 
the things that you have saved, those charts are here.

This is basically a quick demo of the online
ChartTool.
I hope that you enjoy this demo
of the online chart tool for your classrooms.
