Piktochart is easy to work with and creates a fair Infographic. I still prefer to hire an art director. It's worth the money to have an intelligent designer with you :-)

Don't forget to add your perspecitve, your insight as to why this infographic add up to more than just numbers and figures on a chart.

Using Social Media to Teach Visual Literacy in the 21st Century Classroom

Using Social Media to Teach Visual Literacy in the 21st Century Classroom | Create, Innovate & Evaluate in Higher Education | Scoop.it

That we have evolved our favorite forms of communication is obvious without more than simply watching our students walk through the hallways. It would be easy to demonize social media and each medium that it provides for human interaction. But it would be educationally valuable to embrace it, turning it into an opportunity for our students to develop an appreciation for the advanced cognitive skills they employ on a daily basis. Why not study the highly visual communication models connecting the thoughts that mean the most to them with the social networks where they live their lives?

Alfredo Corell's insight:

Visual literacy matters


Visual literacy is the ability to:

  1. Process and make meaning of information presented in an image.
  2. Communicate our own ideas through principles of design.
  3. Create our own messages that capture our visual thinking in a way that conceptualizes problems to given solutions.

Visual Literacy has a new emphasis in the Australian Curriculum. This is certainly a good article to give ideas for embedding some good quality practice in digital learning.

This article encompasses the use of technology and social media in the classroom as a form of communication.  More and more we are creating sites like facebook pages for campuses in order to communicate with parents and community members since that seems to be what we are doing on and off our free time.  Always on facebook, snap chat, twitter, etc. so why not use it in education.  If the sites are properly and efficiently formed they can be a very resourceful tool to use with students and facilitate learning as well as teaching. The fact that students are able to see a full colored picture or photograph to infer from or make meaning is very different then the typical black and white copy.  There is better conferencing and making meaning for textual evidence.  Students as well have a more expandable source of resources in order to create their own projects and presentations.
