Infographics with Easel.ly

Easel.ly is a really neat site for creating infographs on any subject. You can use the templates as a starting point, or start from scratch. 

Infographs are visual and text combined in a creative way to tell a story, relate data, report statistics, etc.

Easel.ly is a fun tool to turn loose for your students on their next assignment. They can sign up with their Google account at Easel.ly, create their infograph, share with you, and then you can bring each project up on the classroom screen while the student presents the materials/subject they've researched. Just an idea. 

Ideas on using Easel.ly in variety of classroom settings, either created by teachers or students: http://www.easel.ly/blog/category/common-core-standards/ 

Give it a try- if nothing else, have students tackle an infograph on their own as extra credit and see what transpires!
