Infographic - prior to class, not a hot clue what this term actually meant.
Now spend two and a half months in a technology class.
Infographic - A digital image or video used to share information in a short format, with minimal reading required.
Here is my sample infographic. It is nothing fancy, especially since I cite wikipedia, but it is a great start for me to figure out how to use the technology to create one.
I think that it would be awesome to use these in my classroom, having students make them would be a great way to review information or summarize a chapter. I think that students would enjoy making these, as opposed to always making things like posters by hand. The biggest piece would be showing students how to actually make the infographics. However, this is just another learning experience, so embrace it and take inforgraphics for a test drive.
