The purpose of this article is to illustrate the iterative process utilized in building joint displays using both bar graphs and observational field notes to understand a specific phenomenon. An explanatory sequential mixed methods study was conducted with Jamaican secondary school teachers that sought to understand how teachers’ beliefs shaped the use of technology. Based on the use of joint display analysis in this study, we illustrate how the insights gleaned and challenges encountered from each iteration of developing successive joint displays helped us to refine our understanding through an assessment of the organizational intent, analytic intent, and effectiveness of the visuals created.
