With two or three other students, choose one of these topics or find data about a subject that interests you:

● Major banks: Which are the biggest banks according to market share, assets, employees, or other measures?

● News websites: Which are the most popular news websites in the world?

● Students at your school: What majors and career paths do students choose?

● Baseball: How do two teams compare for the past five years?

● Reality television: Who watches which shows?

As a group, agree on at least three sets of data that will become sections of an infographic. Then, working independently, create an infographic to display the data. Consider which data should get the most and least attention and which requires explanatory text.

When you’re finished, compare infographics with the other students. What decisions did you make in choosing text and graphics? Which work best and why?
