Why infographics?
• The research & design necessary to construct
good infographics address many information
literacy standards.
• Our students are hit with information from all
directions. Infographics are a way to make
sense of this information.
• Infographics combine linguistic and non-
linguistic systems, using both words and visuals.
• They’re engaging!
