"For the past four years, we’ve been using infographics with our students at different grade levels. This year, our second graders were studying New York City to make comparisons between its historical past at the turn of the last century with today. Instead of the typical presentation poster, they made infographics using the Easelly app." Via Beth Dichter

"In order for our learners to see how designing information changes how it is viewed, the students this year placed their visual infographics side-by-side with their linear notes to see the transformation. It was the “ah ha” moment, when they could examine how the delivery of content mattered and how the deliberate choices in font hierarchy, color selection, and placement changed the way others perceived the ideas."

Visual and linear learning design should come together to create a learning tool. Infographics are an example of this. |
Can 2nd graders create infographics? Based on this post from ASIDE the answer would be yes! The students were able to Easel.ly and create 8 infographics that show their understanding of New York City at the turn of the century and today. Consider trying a similar project with students in your classroom (and make sure to learn to use Easel.ly before you introduce it to your students!).
