On infographics

For report 3, you will be creating an infographic.  This post contains some examples of infographics.  You can find more here.

WHAT YOU'RE MAKING:  What you need to take from these infographics is this:  your report 3 should look something like these, but the subject matter will be on the social system that you are studying (i.e., white supremacy, patriarchy, capitalism).  One of the differences between your infographic and the examples below is that each infographic item (or bit of info about your social system) in your infographic must be annotated and sourced (i.e., cited).  Another difference is that you are expected to make amateur infographics--at least the first is a professional level infographic, which you are not expected to make.

INDIVIDUAL REPORTS:  Each group member will be doing an infographic only on their readings.  From each of the 4 readings, each person is expected to extract 3 (or more) ideas.  Therefore, each individual report/infographic will, in total, contain 12 (or more) ideas.  There is a collective component to this phase; the info and things that each member learns about and takes visual notes on will be used by the group to construct a game based on the info extracted from each member's readings.

EXAMPLES
This one is on the differences between political left and right.


This one is on gamification.
