2/28- Infographic

An infographic is a form of content marketing that can turn a boring subject into a much more exciting concept by displaying the information in a graph or chart. It allows the audience member to learn about a topic while doing a lot less reading and most people would prefer reading an infographic than a regular text article. An infographic is best used for explaining a story or thesis, to educate and inform, or to build brand awareness. They are commonly found on social media, in newspapers to show weather or used to display maps for public transportation. They have also been commonly used because this is the age of short attention span, meaning people have less patience to read something full of words so they would prefer to see a more simple version. In the classroom, I could info graphs if I'm presenting something dealing with a complex idea like a procedure of some sort or a study with lots of statistics. Info graphs would help me organize information so the audience can view it easier and I can add pictures and graphs so it will grab the readers attention and put my point across easily. I could also use an info graph when presenting information about myself or another person because it's a unique idea that is pleasing to the eye.


I like this infograph because it's organized very well and has a cool appearance that captivates an audience member.

I chose this info graph because it displays very unique information in a way that's easy to follow and read. It shows how info graphs can show factual information and awareness about unknown topics.
