What are infographics?
Infographics- graphic visual representations of
information, data or knowledge intended to present information quickly and
clearly
But the best way to define an infographic is to look at some infographics. The internet is full of examples of infographics that you can find with a bit of searching and use for inspiration including individual infographics like this one, lists of best infographics like this one, and this one from Hot Butter Studio.
Of course, the best way
to learn about infographs is to make some yourself!
Two popular free
infograph tools are Canva and Piktochart.
You can learn about more infograph creation tools on the Cool Infographics Tool page.
How can you use
infographics in your teaching, training, or work environment?
The first idea that comes to mind is using an infographic to summarize important information so "at a glance" one can easily get that main points. An example would be to create an infographic explaining why handwashing is important. This was/is a great tool for health department, doctors offices, school to have posted for those passing by to learn from.
