All semester, we have worked on sumarization skills. You will put those skills to use and summarize the loads of information you viewed on your topic's Blendspace. You will summarize the information and create an infographic.
What is an infographic? Watch the quick video below. (This video is using the same website you will use to create an infographic, Piktochart)
To create an infograpic, there are a number of different technologies you could choose from. I will go into detail for one technology, Piktochart. Included at the bottom of this section is a list of additional technologies you COULD use to create your infographic as well. I am just most familiar with Piktochart and find it very user friendly. As a group, view the video tutorials and browse the other suggested technologies and pick one that works best for your group.
So, first you should familiarize yourself with Piktochart. Use the video below to help you get started.
2nd: Watch this video to understand the specifics of Piktochart for this project (I made this video)
3rd: Head on over to Piktochart.com and get started. Work with your group and decide what information should be used in your infograpic. Again, this is a group registration so keep the same username and password as you had for Blendspace. There was a lot of information on the Blendspace. What information do you think is the most important? I recommend not starting with a blank infographic. There are numerous free, pre-made templates; you simply need to change the words and pictures to make it suitable for your topic.
I remind you that the information you use here is the ONLY information that other students will view. Get the big points on the Piktochart.
Requirements: Piktocharts should include at least 10 facts about your topic. They should be easy to read and have good color contrast Pick one of the 8 health skills and describe how the health skill could be useful with your topic Add 3 pictures that are specific to your topic You may not copy and paste information- put everything into your own words/summarize
Other infographic tools that you could use if you don't like Piktochart.
