Abstract:

Infographics have become an invaluable source of easy to read and access visual information for the internet. They have the ability to easily communicate quite dense and complex information without creating reader fatigue.

In this session, the presenter Nik Peachey looks at a range of tasks and activities that we can use to exploit visual information and help students to improve their digital and information literacies whilst developing their language and communication skills.

The session also include a range of ready to use examples. By the end of the session, you should be able to develop your own materials for your students using these tasks and resources.

He also shares an app that he’s developed for teachers to help them develop their own teaching knowledge using infographics.
