A Timeline Tells a Story…

A Timeline of Mrs. Carpenter’s Life Born (1964) Married David (1991) Birth to Sam (1996) Birth to Max (1997) Lived in Hong Kong ( ) Moved to Taipei (2007)

Good Timelines… Are sequential (years and events are labeled in correct order!) Are easy to read (neat) because they were PLANNED, drafted, and THEN published! Represent periods of time in a PROPORTIONALLY accurate way Make effective use of color without overdoing it Use blank s p a c e to keep things easy to read: space on borders, space between labels… not… all CRAMMEDtogetherandIMPOSSIBLEtoread!

Good Timeline TIPS: Label years of events in parentheses example: (1965) Use a couple colors for a color theme. Use RED only for urgent highlight Fonts: choose 1 and stick with it. Do not use “caps lock” or fonts that are all capital letters– hard for the brain to read!

Timeline Symbols Label date of event in parentheses example: (1964)

“Lightning Bolts” show a break in time. Use them to replace a span of many years that you cannot fit onto your page.

A “Bracket” shows a span of years.

Select a couple of colors to establish a nice color theme. Too much color is really BARFY, gets in the WAY of your message, and makes the reader DIZZY! PS: DON’T USE ALL CAPS, EITHER!!!!!

Timeline Symbols Simple Title framed on top

Timeline Symbols “White Space” on borders and between labels must be there!

Humans Arrive from Malaysia (40,000 BC) Europeans Discover Australia (Cook in 1770) (500, million inhabitants before Europeans) Starting in 1788, some convicts were shipped to the Australian colonies. Soon free immigrants also began coming to Australia. Gold Discovered in Australia in 1851 (Population = 437,655.) people a year start to arrive! In 1861, men outnumbered women in Australia by more than a third, with about 638,000 men and 462,000 women. By 1901, women made up almost one-half of the population, with 1,977,472 men and 1,796,329 women. = 3,765, decade later: 1,151,947 World War II (1939=1945) 7 million at end Post-War Immigration Policy “Populate or Perish!” ( ) 1971; 13.5 MILLION Today (2007): 20,979,000 40,000 BC 1770 AD Australia’s History
