Enhancing and Impacting the Online Classroom Environment with Infographics

Abstract

An infographic is a type of picture that, if done correctly, blends complex data with understandable design. College students today are inundated by visually stimulating screen-based environments. Infographics utilize that environment to enhance the process of summarizing educational material. Data visualization can provide students with multiple dimensions of competency including searching, systematic thinking, and effective interdisciplinary teamwork.
