Infographics Critique

As I navigated through the three different websites for info-graphic creations, I realized the value these resources can serve students and teachers when presenting information to colleagues or classmates.  I had used something similar to this but it was nothing as creative and easy as these three sources.

    The website that I feel suited me and had many great features was the Piktochart. I found it easy to use because it contained a variety of different objects and pictures which allowed the user to add just about any tools they wanted. Besides the options that were available to select, users had the choice to create their own template for their info-graphic or select what was already available on the site. The Easelly website was similar to the Piktochart but it did not have enough customization alternatives which limits users to be creative when using the free plan.  It also permit users to select different info-graphics for a template. I was able to create my info-graphic with no problem but again it limited me from using distinct tools. Last but not least, the Info-gram did not work for me. I had a difficult time getting started but I guess once you get the gist of creating a template, one can design professional visually appealing info-graphs. Another great feature the website contained was the use of animation. The animation was great but again it limits the user from finding objects to use on their templates on the free plan.

     Overall, the websites are wonderful tools to share with our students. It is a great way they can visually showcase their creativity with others and have fun doing it too.  These resources are a great way to visually communicate by sharing data, information design or editorials. It is up to the users to decide what type of information they want to share with others.
