These two visualizations, one a radial chart and one a bar chart, show the same information, a rating of how necessary the following skills are for Psychology Teacher Education majors. Toggle between "value" and "RCA" to see the absolute rating of that skill (value) and the revealed comparative advantage (RCA), or how much greater or lesser that skill's rating is than the average.
