Link O'the Month: Infographics

Infographics are visual representations of data, information, and knowledge. They are intended to present simple and/or complex information quickly and clearly given a mix of text, pictures, data, charts, etc.

For example, the Infographic to the left was created by Rick Mans, author of the article How Infographics Accelerate Learning, to support his thoughts. (edudemic.com) I've also included several Infographics below to give you a taste of what’s out there!

Use the sites listed to find Infographics for use to enhance your student’s learning experiences – topics range from history to current trends, and everything in between! Or, encourage students to create their own Infographics!
