They listen to the lecture very carefully, take notes, and ask few questions at the end. They take a short break after the class, only to prepare for another hour of such enjoyment. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you had to think of a single word to describe that scene, what would it be? <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Boring! <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There\u2019s no student in the world who would thrive in such a level of discipline.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Psychologists claim that the\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">attention span<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> of a typical university student is 10 &#8211; 15 minutes long. If you\u2019re dealing with an online learning audience, you have an even bigger problem: people\u2019s average attention span when reading online resources is\u00a0<\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.telegraph.co.uk\/science\/2016\/03\/12\/humans-have-shorter-attention-span-than-goldfish-thanks-to-smart\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">8 seconds<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That\u2019s no joke. You have to invest a superhuman force to engage them.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Students Don\u2019t Listen to Us. What Can We Do About That?<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When students are given a task that seems challenging, they lose the motivation to try. Staying completely focused throughout a 50-minute lecture is definitely a challenge, so we can\u2019t really blame them for not trying. A student\u2019s attention can get away from you in seconds, so you have to find a way to hold it through innovative methods of teaching. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Simply taking on the role of an authority figure that they have to respect won\u2019t work. We have a better suggestion for you: <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">infographics<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With this form of content, you can present complex information enhanced with charts, symbols, lists, images, and other visual triggers. Instead of seeing the face of a bored student in front of you, you\u2019ll start catching those \u201caha, I get it\u201d expressions. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Infographics are already an established standard for presenting news and\u00a0<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/venngage.com\/blog\/ebook-how-to-create-infographics-for-your-marketing\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">marketing campaigns<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. However, they also have huge potential for shining into the educational sphere, and you surely want to be among the first instructors who introduce the trend. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The only question is: how exactly do you use infographics in the educational process?<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s how to engage students using education infographics.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/venngage.com\/templates\/?utm_source=blog&amp;utm_campaign=blog&amp;utm_medium=cta&amp;utm_term=hogwarts+infographic&amp;utm_content=templatepage\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><br \/>\n<button style=\"color: #ffffff; font-size: 20px; line-height: 1; font-family: Helvetica, Oxygen, sans-serif; border-width: 10px 25px; border-style: solid; border-color: #FF9A16; border-radius: 3px; display: inline-block; background-color: #ff9a16;\">CLICK HERE TO MAKE AN INFOGRAPHIC<\/button><br \/>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<h2>1. Interpreting Conversational Topics<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When you introduce a topic for discussion, you have to give a brief presentation that will encourage your students to share their opinions. For example, let\u2019s say you want to discuss the\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">hashtag trend<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Can your students remember when they first started using hashtags? Do they know where the trend comes from? Most of them don\u2019t know there\u2019s a whole history behind the hashtag. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You\u2019ll look like the coolest teacher in the world if you can present a pop-culture topic through an infographic.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Take a look at this infographic:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2016\/10\/ed-infographic-1.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-8025\" src=\"https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2016\/10\/ed-infographic-1.png\" alt=\"Education Infographics 1\" width=\"556\" height=\"800\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Okay, okay, it\u2019s in French, but you\u2019ll get the point. First, the infographic presents some history.<\/p>\n<p>Then it shows how people use it, and then you get some statistics that show how effective it is for gaining popularity on social media.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, the infographic shows how people shouldn\u2019t use the infographic, and it ends with some tips on proper usage. Do you already see yourself giving a lecture on proper hashtag use through education infographics?<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The coolest thing about this form of content is that it captures your students\u2019 attention and they get your point. When you pick a great topic and show a fun infographic, you\u2019ll intrigue them. You\u2019ll have a great entrance to discussion questions. That\u2019s your teaching superpower, right there.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now, let\u2019s see\u2026how many of you use the hashtag? Why do you use it? Is it just because it\u2019s popular, or you want to raise awareness about different issues? Do you think the hashtag is a lame trend?<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So, here\u2019s your recipe to a successful discussion: trendy topic presented with an infographic + intriguing questions your students understand. \u00a0 \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>2. Visual Presentation of Data<\/h2>\n<p>Duh! That\u2019s the main point of an infographic: visual presentation of complex information. When you\u2019re trying to convince your students that information is beautiful, the infographic is the right presentation method to choose.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Let\u2019s say you\u2019re giving a lecture on gender equality. You\u2019ll have tons of statistics to present there. What\u2019s the difference between the percentage of unemployment of men and women in different countries? What\u2019s the difference in their salaries? What about education? <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Wow, that would be a long, boring lecture suffocated with numbers and percentages. But not if you show it through an infographic!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Take a look at this infographic<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">that shows <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">data on teens and social media<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. When you see statistics represented in an appealing way, they don\u2019t look overwhelming. In fact, your students might even remember some of the data you present, so be prepared for that surprise. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2016\/10\/social-media.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-8031\" src=\"https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2016\/10\/social-media.png\" alt=\"Education Infographics 2\" width=\"615\" height=\"800\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can present your lecture the usual way, with the only difference that you\u2019ll display an infographic instead of writing data on the whiteboard. The infographic will guide you through the numbers, but it will also catch your students\u2019 attention.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>3. Engaging Students in Arguments from Evidence<\/h2>\n<p>How do you teach your students to give arguments from evidence? As a teacher, you have a responsibility to encourage them to discuss different issues, identify their strengths and weaknesses, find the best explanation, and support their opinions with strong evidence. This process of reasoning is a crucial component of science and engineering classes.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Scientists must examine their own reasoning through research, and then defend their arguments with a solid base of data. Engineers rely on reasoning and argument to find the best solutions to the issues they come across. One of the critical stages of the engineering process is choosing the most promising solution among competing ideas from collaborators.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Even if you\u2019re not currently preparing your students for careers in science or engineering, you\u2019re aware of the fact that you need to help them develop the skills for presenting strong arguments from a\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">very early age<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. This is a crucial skill for scientists and engineers, but people in all other professions will benefit from it. So how can you engage them in arguments from evidence? Wait for it\u2026. <em>education<\/em>\u00a0<\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">infographics<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can start with an infographic that <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pinterest.com\/pin\/128141551876345105\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">explains the process of reasoning<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and providing evidence-based responses.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2016\/10\/ed-infographic-3.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-8027\" src=\"https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2016\/10\/ed-infographic-3.png\" alt=\"Education Infographics 3\" width=\"839\" height=\"800\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once you introduce your students to a concept, you can show how the concept works in practice. Create an infographic that shows your own argument from evidence. For example, you can start talking about GMO and present <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pinterest.com\/pin\/295548794269189935\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">scientific arguments<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> that support your point of view. Here\u2019s an example of such an infographic:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2016\/10\/ed-infographic-4.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-8028\" src=\"https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2016\/10\/ed-infographic-4.png\" alt=\"Education Infographics 4\" width=\"783\" height=\"800\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your students will get the idea. Then, you can challenge them. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019re teaching students that already have solid computer skills, you can ask them to create their own infographics of arguments from evidence. This can be done as a team project. Give them enough time to do the research, form their argument, and design the infographic.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>4. Infographics as Gamification Education Tools<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gamification is a huge trend in contemporary education. Students love playing games, so teachers are finding ways to use that passion against them. They trick them into learning through games. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sounds smart, right? Through\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">gamification of the learning process<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, you will teach your students to develop persistence, attention to detail, risk-taking, and problem-solving skills. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now, how do infographics fit in?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can present all elements of the game through an infographic. Your design should show the levels, point system, achievements, tasks, and rules. Instead of explaining how the game works, you\u2019ll turn the narrative into an infographic that will give life to your instructions.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Check out this example of an infographic that <\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/elearninginfographics.com\/guide-to-learning-games\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">shows such instructions<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Conveniently enough, it shows you how to introduce games into the classroom. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2016\/10\/ed-infographic-5.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-8029\" src=\"https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2016\/10\/ed-infographic-5.png\" alt=\"Education Infographics 5\" width=\"551\" height=\"800\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you have no idea what games to introduce into the classroom, you may find\u00a0<\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.techlearning.com\/default.aspx?tabid=100&amp;entryid=4684\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">this list<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> helpful.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>5. Constructing Explanations and Designing Solutions<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The practice of constructing explanations and designing solutions is similar to argumentation from evidence, but it takes the process a step forward: <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">designing solutions<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. It requires students to evaluate a solution to a complex problem from the real world. If the assignment is for engineering class, they should consider all constraints in the form of costs, reliability, safety, and visual appeal, as well as cultural, environmental, and social impacts.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For example, you can ask your students to construct an explanation of the way human activity influences the occurrence of climate changes and natural hazards. Once they present the data they collect, they should come up with their suggestions for a solution. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When all this information is presented in an infographic, the project will be much more appealing, and the presentation will be cooler. You can collect all infographics and publish them on the class blog, so everyone will see what the other teams did.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/visual.ly\/community\/Infographics\/environment\/global-warning\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Check out this great infographic<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0based on constructing explanations and presenting solutions. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2016\/10\/ed-infographic-6.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-8030\" src=\"https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2016\/10\/ed-infographic-6.png\" alt=\"Education Infographics 6\" width=\"699\" height=\"800\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2>Want to Engage and Inspire Your Students? Try Infographics!<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What\u2019s the whole point of teaching, anyway? <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You need to find a fun way to present the lectures, ask the right questions, and guide your students into a discussion that won\u2019t overwhelm them. The traditional schooling method no longer works; you have to keep pace with modern technology if you want to make learning attractive for your students.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Infographics fit right into the picture of modern education. You can use them to present intriguing concepts and provocative statements and inspire your students to craft their own design. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And an infographic looks fun, but it takes effort. The student will have to do some research and collect evidence while presenting their own opinions along the way. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That\u2019s what we call a successful assignment. <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A teacher walks into a classroom and suddenly, everyone gets quiet.
