Let ’s pause for questions from the audience….
Why focus on infographics? “ Students of all ages encounter these visual texts as frequently as adults do and are expected to understand them, both in school work and in everyday living. To reflect the range of literacies, a classroom program needs to include explicit instruction in how these texts work.” - Steve Moline,  I See What You Mean
Why focus on infographics? Information is accessible to all readers. Very young children English Language Learners Struggling readers Visual learners
Why focus on infographics? We are consumers of larger numbers of infographics and integrated texts due to online media. Daily Infographic
Teaching Strategies “ Because a diagram can provide many layers of information and because a statistical graph can often be misinterpreted, it is necessary to provide explicit instruction in what these texts do and don’t mean and how these texts make their meaning.” - Steve Moline,  I See What You Mean
Teaching Strategies Explicitly discuss the purpose of different types of infographics.
Teaching Strategies Focus on one type at a time. Ask questions that help students focus on the components of the infographic and their purposes.
Teaching Strategies As a class, examine an infographic and list all the information that it conveys. This might take several pages! Check for understanding by challenging students to translate an infographic into text.
Teaching Strategies Give students strategies to attack infographics. Provide guided practice in applying the strategies.
 
Teaching Strategies Have students collect examples from newspapers, books, and online media. What features do they have in common? Evaluate and critique – which convey their information the best and why? Have students revise an infographic to make it more effective.
