I decided to create an Infographic for this design project using the educational technology of Piktochart. This free website is a tool that allows anyone to create infographics, posters, presentations and flyers. Inside of the site users can decide if they want to use a pre-made template or create their own design. Piktochart is user-friendly and allows educators to better convey information to their students. Infographics are virtual flyers that use pictures, words and colors to create a visually appealing graphic. It has been shown that students absorb educational material more readily when it is shown in this kind of format. The infographic I created using Piktochart relates to the 4th grade ELA writing process and consists of prewriting, drafting, revising and publishing stages. This is a start to finish representation of the writing process intended to teach students effective writing strategies. Educators of all levels can access this free website to create graphic content for their classroom. In the future, educators like myself and fellow peers can implement this educational tool into our classrooms. Learning more about Piktochart to create an infographic was enjoyable and a great project overall to explore new educational technology!
