Teaching English with Infographics

What are infographics?
They are visual graphic representations of information.  Their aim is to present information (no matter how complicated it may be) in such a way that it could be understood easily and quickly.

Why use infographics in teaching English?

Obviously, because there are so many  complicated things in English that are to be understood, learnt and remembered by students with the teacher's help.
Infographics are really useful  for English teachers as they help visualise any material be it grammar, vocabulary, syntax, spelling etc. thus making it easier to understand and to remember.
The most grateful fans of your infographics are going to be visual learners and those who are just too lazy to  read long texts and study huge volumes of information.

Where do you take infographics to meet your needs?


 One way is to surf the Net. I just can't help sharing one infographics collections with you.  It's from Grammar.net.  Here is their infographic  that deals with the differences between British and American spelling. You can find much more if you go to Grammar.net.

 The otherway is to creare your infographics yourself.
For this you can use such tools as Infogr.am and Piktochart that are free. You can find a list of other free infographics tools here.
