I have heard great things about Adobe Spark, I have also seen some other teachers including infographics as an assignment. I have always wanted to do this but feel I need to really understand how to make them before I can expect my students to. I did a very basic infographic and feel still very in the dark about how to do this. Adobe is easy to use, click friendly and has a lot to offer. However when I wanted to do certain things it asked for payment, this would be a barrier to my students so I need to investigate if our organization has a sign in for this for our students and faculty. I also felt there wasn’t a lot of space to create anything, if I make the font smaller it would be non accessible to most people. Perhaps I need to sit with Adobe longer, or try another infographic maker. I do not feel proficient or even novice at this point. If I were to ask my students to use this I know they would experience much of what I did and their time would be spent figuring out the tech versus worrying about the content.

Even trying to share the infographic proved to be very time consuming and not easy.

I will keep learning about infographics, and I will keep Adobe Spark as a side project to learn more about.
