Infographic (Extra)

I am not entirely sure if my infographic is considered an infographic but I am saying that it is because I am not changing my mind for the thousandth time!

What are Infographics?
Inforgraphics "are graphic visual representations of informationdata or knowledge intended to present complex information quickly and clearly" as stated by wikipedia.

I really like the idea of using infographics in the classroom because they can sum up a topic in a way that displays the important information in an easy and clear way. Infographics are great for the visual learners in the classroom and would also be a great assignment for students to display their learning.

Examples of Inforgraphics:

I found both of these examples on pinterest























Now for my Inforgraphic:

I used photos that I took and I found my information on livescience.com and canadianencyclopedia.com

  1. Love your infographic, it is so clear and very beautiful. I hope that we can all figure out how to incorporate them into our classroom, since they are fun, interesting and will likely really appeal to students.
    I really like your idea of using them for summarizing.

  2. Amanda, I really like your infographic. It is so pretty and full of clear information. I really enjoyed this tech task and I too am looking forward to using it in a classroom (although it might be difficult for early years students).
