An infographic is a combination of images and text designed to share information in a visually appealing way. By presenting information in graphical elements like diagrams, charts, colours and placement an infographic can improve cognition by showcasing patterns and trends and by reinforcing text-based information with visual elements.

When submitting an infographic as part of an assignment, infographics are commonly shared as an image file or PDF. The Learning Portal has created several resources supporting learners who want to learn about and create infographics. You can find the full tutorial in the Digital Media Assignments Hub under Infographics. An animated or video infographic is similar to a regular infographic but with added animations or movement.
