Infographics: Turning Data Into Information

[Frank W. Baker]

Here is an interesting website, Cool Infographics, which highlights charts, graphics and infographics and explores how these visual texts communicate meaning. I discovered it while reading the "10 Tips for Designing Infographics."  See also, The New York Times' week-long series on this topic and how teachers are helping their students understand visual information.

Just saw this. I'm looking to put together a mini unit for my students on infographics and everything hee is incredibly helpful. Thanks so much!
