This is a DiY Data Design Action Club tutorial. Today’s design is a slope graph of pre-post data created using Flourish. The final graph is interactive but could also be downloaded for use in static pdfs.
Final Dot Plot
Why this chart?
Slope graphs have increased in popularity but they are still a pretty rare chart to see out in the wild these days. What I like about this one is that compared to a dot plot it really helps the reader isolate individual charts.
Sometimes you do not want your reader to instantly compare all the individual programs. You would prefer they look at each individually, and this graph enables that approach.
How to create this chart.

Where to get the template.
The underlying Flourish template (and sample data) is also available to members of Action Club.
