This looks really interesting! I try to provide an infographic version for certain concepts that I cover in my ESL class. I've also provided it as an option for how students can show their understanding of a topic, in addition to some of the more common ways like prose or speeches. 

However, I will admit that I am still a novice in creating them. I've registered and can't wait to hear how others are using infographics. 

I'm a novice at creating them too, Erin.  I discovered them as an assessment of learning during Spring term when I took classes with an instructor who asked us to create summarizing infographics for a specific number of units within the course.  They were an interesting challenge for me.  I appreciated the amount of clarity required to communicate all the necessary info in a limited space.
