A few days ago I curated a set of useful web tools that teachers can use to create infographics to use in class. All of the tools I included in that collection are very easy and simple to use. Today, somebody emailed me this beautiful infographic that I want you to have a look at. This is an infgraphic on how to create an engaging infographic. It features some interesting tips that you can benefit from next time you want to create a visual for your students. Here are some of the ideas that stood out to me from this work:

5- Research. Use a variety of authoritative sources.
