I teach introductory chemistry and advanced inorganic chemistry. Graph Sketcher has been of tremendous help in generating quick, qualitative graphs such as this phase diagram for water....

The program has definitely freed time I would have spent fiddling with other drawing programs, and has allowed me to devote more time to my course content.

I am doing a business degree and was pulling my hair out in my Microeconomics course trying to complete my assignments. I was wasting so much time trying to use the programs I already had on my Mac to make my assignments look professional.

Graph Sketcher saved my bacon -- it was so easy to create beautiful and professional looking graphs. In the end, my instructor had the last word -- he gave me an A for the course!

In corrosion science, we use this kind of map (known as a Pourbaix Diagram) as a general guiding principle to help choose the appropriate metal or alloy to use in a given environment.

This is actually the first figure I made with Graph Sketcher and it took about 5 minutes. Until now, I've been drawing these by hand because plotting in excel was too tedious, and drawing them freehand in inkscape was too inexact.

I'm a high school math teacher, and I created the attached graph for our calculus midterm exam. There were questions related to limits and differentiability of the
function shown.

I could not find any other program that allowed me to easily sketch the
graph without using equations.

Here's a graph that a lab group in my high school physics class recently turned in. It shows the relationship between the object and image distance for real images formed by a concave mirror.

Excel is way too complicated for our average student's comfort or ability level. Graph Sketcher takes very little time out of physics instruction, and the kids just "get it" right away. In this case, they got the lab and the graph done in less than 40 minutes!

The attached figure shows data from a tensile test: we pull on a metal specimen at some constant strain rate, and measure the resulting stress, until it breaks.

One of the things I really like about Graph Sketcher is the ability to visually select data points with the mouse, in a group. This way, you can easily discriminate the data you would like to fit a line to.

Finally, I can generate concise, textbook quality figures to get my point across quickly and accurately.
