When I looked at this task and the word infographic I thought it might be complex and I didn't know what it was. When I googled and searched it on pintrest I found out I indeed do know what an infographic is. An infographic is a unique was of expressing graphic visual representations of information, data and knowledge. It is made to present it quickly and clearly.
I definitely think these could and should be used in a classroom. They are great to have to present info to dress up the walls of a classroom. You can analyze them in class as a discussion for any portion of a lesson. You could also have students make their own as a form of assessment.
Here's some cool infographics you could use in Social Studies/World Issues
Now here is my infographic I made on Piktochart. I focussed on one of my favourite sports, Curling! This great for introducing the game to young students in Early Years Physical Education.



I really like the idea of "dressing up" a classroom. Infographics are way more informative and appealing than basic old posters.
