Tips:
An infographic is an image that shares information. The infographic can include numbers and text. Before thinking of ideas, you can look up infographics on the Internet to get ideas.
Infographics require using the fewest words possible to make your point. The visual design will be an important part of what you are communicating—replacing some of the words you’d use in a paragraph.
Text should be no smaller than a 10-point font. If you use images from an external source, check for copyrights and make sure to give credit to your source. Cite your facts. For references, in either Word or PowerPoint, you can include the reference list outside of your infographic.
List out what you want to say for each rubric criterion. Then identify the most critical pieces that need to remain in text. Once you’ve done that, explore different visual designs that will organize and expand on the information you need to present.
