Indeed cctionline.org has opened our
eyes and I think it will continue doing the same. we were asked to create an
infographic from what we had learned. I have been hearing about infographics but
I had never tried to create my own didn’t knowing the treasures behind it, now
this was my chance to try it out and i was very ecstatic. Infographics are visual presentations
of information that use the elements of design to display content. And one
interesting thing about Infographics is that it expresses complex messages to
viewers in a way that enhances their comprehension. We now know that Images in
infograhics are often an extension of the content of a written article, but
infographics convey a self-contained message or principle and this one
impressed me so much.
If a road sign has too much
information on it, then it is difficult to read. Infographics compress and
display this information in a visually pleasing way so that drivers don’t miss
the message. Infographics communicate
complex data quickly and clearly, and they are considered to be
effective worldwide. And this is what I like about this tool, when a complex
piece of information needs to be described quickly, precisely and clearly, a
graphic is suitable.
Infographics are used for the
following reasons:
- To communicate a message,
- To present a lot of data or information in a way that is compact and easy to comprehend,
- To analyze data in order to discover cause-and-effect relationships,
- To periodically monitor the route of certain parameters.
There are so many Infographic tools to
use easily; the only bottleneck has been the use of the available tools to
create something meaningful. So planning for the info-graphic in advance very
essential.
The reason as to why I decided to
choose Piktochart is because it is very simple learn, It has a walk through
tutorial that helps you get well vast with its
features.
Please feel free to read through my
infograhic by following this link

I feel ecstatic to accomplish this
assignment, thanks to my colleagues.
I agree with you that infographics show complex data clearly and the result is visually pleasing.
