Infographics as Support for Students' Digital Literacy Practices
Abstract
Our students are grazers, according to 2012 Pew Research Study. They skim and scan for information online, prioritizing visual resources, like infographics, that quickly provide key details on a topic. By using infographics as reading and composing tools, we can support and improve these digital literacy practices. This session will include sample infographics, analysis tools, graphic organizers, and writing assignments.
