"This past week I taught a few classes on infographics and decided to update the page by adding a section called "Teaching With Infographics". It is important for your students to make sure that they evaluate any infographics they are using, by making sure the author/creator has cited their references. Misinformation on the web exists. Have students read these tips to make a better infographic." Via Beth Dichter

Been loving infographics and looking for a good way to incorporate these. Hoping for an app that would make them easily. We'll see what this has to say... |
The Media Specialist has recently updated her information on teaching with infographics. This post provides many great resources including a post on tips to make better infographics, an in-depth video on teaching with infographics, a series of videos that detail how to use Piktochart to create infographics, and many other resources. If you are considering having students create infographics check out this post for resources.
Very helpful and great tips to follow.
Working with info graphics has become an important skill now a days because new generation reads better images with less text. Helping students to become good users of it is developing 21st. century learners.
