Info+ Graphics= INFOGRAPHICS!

For module #7, we are playing with infographics! There are so many reasons why we should start using infographics rather than presenting a boring research paper. I listed some of the pros below!
  • Infographics can be an easy way to organize information
  • They are a digital tool that can be fun and personalizable
  • Infographics are also easy to read for all learners, but it will definitely benefit visual learners
  • Infographics zones into more important information
  • Infographics are universal for all learners & occupations
(And honestly the list goes on!)

So, I decided to play with a few...( easel.ly, piktochart, & infogram) 
They shared some of the same advantages including:
  • Easy sign-up
  • Variety of Fonts
  • Image Upload
  • Charts/Graphs 
  • Templates Options
  • Embed videos
  • Free for the most part
So, I think it is time for me to rate the infographic app that fits me!( Not saying the other two apps are bad in any way!) I chose the one that was easier for me to . And the winner is...
Infogram!

I used http://www.pewinternet.org to look up a research topic that interested me. Since I am a reading teacher, I decided to choose to do my infographic on E-Reading. I hope you enjoy!

  1. Good job on the infographic you created! I had a hard time creating one on Infogram because I had a difficult time looking for stock images.
    I like how you presented the information on your infographic, too. It is easy to follow and understand.

  2. Great blog! The information was simply presented using bullet points. Your infographic was visually impressive and interesting. I used Infogram as well, and had a good experience with it.
