LIB 602 Week 2: Infographics

I enjoyed learning about Infographics this week. I have a much easier time reading and following visuals than long texts and I know that a lot of my students feel the same way.
I definitely want to incorporate the use of them in my classroom and share them with others, especially when I move into the school library and begin collaborating with teachers on a wide variety of subject area lesson plans.

I played around with Tagxedo.com.  I have used Wordle and found that I enjoyed the shaped more in Tagxedo.  I even added an image I created with words describing myself.  I think I will use that during the first week of school next year instead of having students fill out boring surveys that they hate.











I loved Big Huge Labs!  I could definitely see using this in the library with students creating posters to advertise books and movies.
