Abstract

The paper aims to analyse a wide spectrum of issues related to infographics: how to design them so that they can effectively visualise information, data and knowledge, how to upload them to an LCMS for pedagogic gain, how to use them to engage students in learning and make them active and creative participants. It also emphasises their important role in innovative education, particularly in modern academic education, which should support every student to develop both hard and soft skills and empower them to succeed in the changing work context. The authors view the use of infographics as a step forward in making online learning an interactive, stimulating and rewarding experience.
