Using what they have learned about colour, typography and fundamentals of design. Task students to design an infographic.

Ask them to choose a topic that interests them and is suitable for an infographic. Consider subjects related to wellness, sports, or cooking. Below are key steps that they can follow:

Step 1 – Research: Gather relevant information and data about your chosen topic from reliable sources such as books, articles, or websites. Ensure that your facts are accurate and up-to-date.

Step 2 – Identify Key Points: Determine the main points you want to convey in your infographic. These could be statistics, facts, or steps in a process. Keep your audience in mind and focus on the most important information.

Step 3 – Design Layout: Decide on the layout of your infographic. Consider how you will organize your information visually, such as using a chronological timeline, a comparison chart, or a flowchart. Sketch out a rough draft of your design.

Step 4 – Choose Colors and Fonts: Select colors and fonts that complement your topic and enhance readability. Use a color scheme that is visually appealing and appropriate for your subject matter. Ensure that your fonts are clear and easy to read.

Step 5 – Create Visual Elements: Use graphics, icons, and images to visually represent your data and concepts. You can create your illustrations or use royalty-free images from online sources. Be sure to properly credit any images you use.

Step 6 – Add Text: Write concise and informative text to accompany your visuals. Use bullet points, short paragraphs, or captions to explain your key points and provide context for your graphics.

Step 7 – Review and Revise: Review your infographic carefully to check for errors or inconsistencies. Make any necessary revisions to improve clarity and accuracy.

Once you are satisfied with your design, finalize your infographic and prepare it for sharing.

Ask your students to reflect on their process and what they have learned. Use feedback from peers to further improve their design.
