"Throughout history, civilizations have used images to convey their stories. The phrase “A picture is worth a thousand words,” is a manifestation of the power of visual communication. An image can create a sense of clarity by translating knowledge and meaning [1]. An infographic (short for information graphic) is a type of picture that blends data with design ..."

Creating infographics is visual and appeals to many different students and different learning styles. Visual - is worth a thousand words and can make reading a lot of information far easier on the eyes.
There are many different ways in which visual elements can be created; although infographics are valuable as they incorporate different elements: words, visual, symbols, and colours. The article goes into some detail on how to create effective infographics, which is so valuable.

This article did mention the use of online classrooms, not Google classrooms per say, but I found it interesting as it noted that learning through infographics was kind of the new way to use graphics with text. I never paid much attention to how I would learn when it came to reading as I would always read the information and answer questions as I was growing up. Now the information I retained was because I was taught and smart enough to retain in my memory, however had it not been for my graduate studies in which I am learning that learning through the use of pictures and simple text is actually getting better retained in my long term memory. This is especially important for teachers who are constructing lessons or multimedia presentations for their students, and come to think of it would help many of the social studies teachers teach objectives to world history if they would use infographics with the use of text versus just text through power points. This would be one way I would change curriculum to help students retain information and not feel to much of a cognitive overload when working, which is another topic this article discusses. This helps readers understand how people learn.

They say "a picture is worth thousand words"... an infographic must say much more! A great visual tool to enhance the classroom environment.
