Infographics can be a very effective way to convey small bits of information very quickly, while drawing viewers in because of their visual appeal. In this workshop students will learn about best practices for creating infographics, as well as what to avoid. Additionally, they will be introduced to several free online tools that allow users to create their own infographics, including: Piktochart, Infogr.am, and Visme. The session will end with a practice activity where participants are encouraged to use the webtool of their choice.
