20+ Tools to Create Your Own Infographics A picture is worth a thousand words – based on this, infographics would carry hundreds of thousands of words, yet if you let a reader choose between a full-length 1000-word article and an infographic that needs a few scroll-downs, they’d probably prefer absorbing information straight from the infographic. What’s not to like? Colored charts and illustrations deliver connections better than tables and figures and as users spend time looking back and forth the full infographic, they stay on the site longer. Plus, readers who like what they see are more likely to share visual guides more than articles. While not everyone can make infographics from scratch, there are tools available on the Web that will help you create your very own infographics.

Blog | edshelf Reprinted with permission from the Drawp for School Blog Establishing routines in the classroom does not have to be boring or take up a lot of class time. When you see your students only once a week, like I do in the art room, it can be difficult to get all these routines set up at the beginning of the year. As a specialist, I know that students can forget what you taught them when their next class is a whole week later! So… this past summer I was thinking: how can I get my students to learn the routines WITHOUT using too much precious class time to go over them? Alien Explains The Art Class Routine In the beginning of every year, I go over the procedures in the art room, (it seems) over and over (and over!)
