Infographics

Creating and Using Visual Information

In my classroom, infographics created by students would be a fun way for students to understand the steps of a specific technique, such as building a pinch pot. This would allow them to interpret and clarify each step themselves, while adding images to correspond. 
Another great use would be designing infographics about famous artists. Students would organize and edit information to create a simple fact page about their chosen artist. 
A timeline format would be fun to use with older students. Artwork could be structured based on when it was made, and significant historical events could be interspersed. 
I believe the main issue to consider is taking the time for students to really understand what an infographic is, why it is different from other forms of communication, and how to make it visually appealing to viewers. Once that aspect is covered, I believe that students would adapt to using infographic tools quickly.
