Andrew & Nouf:

When: When a large amount of information needs to be easily read by an audience.
Why: An infographic can chunk the information, so that it reduces the cognitive load, in comparison to a
large chunk of text. Images can reduce the amount of words needed to understand the overall message.

Chavis & K:
When: Infographics could be very useful in creating advertisements for special workshops and
presentations. They can help with posters, flyers, and web ads.

or when you are trying to draw attention to important information.

Janet & Dr.Brill:

When: I can visualize using an infographic myself when working with students, and asking my students to
make one as well.

memorable) way, and would want my students to make infographics as assessment tools with which I
could gauge their understanding of content.

When: We could use an infographic when were trying to give instructions on an assignment or task.
