How to create an infographicI created an infographic using the app Canva. Infographics are another way teachers can make and create with technology. This app allows you to create a something like a simple poster, to an infographic. It has lots of tools to help create the type of visual you want to give. The positive things about this app is it is organized, useful, and easy to use. Some negative things is it doesn't work on some devices and can be hard to download. There are also layouts for all their templates. Canva allows you to either make your presentation visual from scratch or start from a template that's already set up. There are txt boxes, colors, different writing, and backgrounds to choose from. To the left, is an example of an infographic that teachers can use. This is about points of view I literature. The Canva app help me create it. I used the images they have to put the pictures next to my descriptions. These pictures help visualize my examples. I found it very easy to make an infographic. I have also used this app for other things. I made boards for my Pinterest folders and I have made an add for technology. There are lots of great examples on Pinterest of infographics made by Canva. I pinned some myself! Teachers can make posters like these to see how they want them to look before they either print it or draw it themselves. There are always informational posters in classrooms. This allows teachers to get exactly what they want. All the tools I used to create mine were free. The prices for some items range from free to about $1.99. HOWEVER, the app itself is free to use so I recommend you at least check it out!
