Band 7.5+ Sample Answer: Line Graph

The line graph illustrates the number of students enrolled in three different courses — online, traditional classroom, and blended learning — at a university between 2010 and 2020.

Overall, it is clear that online course enrollment experienced a dramatic increase over the period, while traditional classroom numbers declined steadily. Blended learning showed moderate but consistent growth throughout the decade.

In 2010, approximately 200 students were enrolled in online courses, compared to 500 in traditional classes and just 100 in blended learning. Over the following ten years, online enrollment rose sharply, reaching around 850 students by 2020. In contrast, traditional classroom enrollment fell gradually to about 280 students. Meanwhile, blended learning saw a steady rise, ending at roughly 350 students in the final year.

This data clearly indicates a significant shift towards digital and more flexible learning modes during the ten-year period.
