Infographics – Visualizing News Stories

Hello there! If you are new here, you might want to subscribe to the RSS feed for updates on this topic.

I have been browsing Mindy McAdams’ Teaching Online Journalism Blog this week. For me, at least, her blog provides quite a different slant on information visualization – that of the journalist trying to convey information.

There were several interesting stories there recently:

She identified an effective use of infographics in USA Today relating to technology that helps prevent car crashes. The USA Today article is here. Her blog entry is here.
There were two interesting posts about Visual Literacy. Click here and here.

Mindy’s blog is interesting. Take a look.
