46 Tools To Make Infographics In The Classroom

46 Tools To Make Infographics In The Classroom | Eclectic Technology | Scoop.it

"Infographics are interesting–a mash of (hopefully) easily-consumed visuals (so, symbols, shapes, and images) and added relevant character-based data (so, numbers, words, and brief sentences).

The learning application for them is clear, with many academic standards–including the Common Core standards–requiring teachers to use a variety of media forms, charts, and other data for both information reading as well as general fluency."

Beth Dichter's insight:

The use of infographics seems to be increasing and this post presents 46 tools that you may use to create an infographic, or better yet, have your students create an infographic.

The tools are arranged alphabetically with a link to each as well as a short description. Some have costs involved but others are open source and freely available.
