Tech Task 7- Infographics

An infographic is a visual chart, diagram, web that can be used to share information, data, or findings. I think infographics could be a very useful tool in the classroom as there are various types of them you could use. Using these charts, diagrams, or  visuals is not only a neat way for yourself or your students to show off the information they have found, but it also gets the student to think about how they want to present their data or information, and bring out the creativity in each student in their own unique way.

For the info graphic design, i chose to use the site Piktochart. It is a website that is very easy to use. You can either choose from their hundreds of designs and plug your information into it, or create your own unique infographic. This is one example I took from the site that I believe would be excellent in the gymnasium. It is colourful, to the point, and eye catching :

I also just created my own inforgraphic design. It is not the greatest, but for my first one I am pretty proud of it! I stuck to my physical education background and did a design on healthy lifestyle practices! Enjoy!
