Infographics using Venngage

Infographic/ˌɪnfə(ʊ)ˈɡrafɪk/nouna visual representation of information or data, e.g. as a chart or diagram."a good infographic is worth a thousand words"

We have been creating infographics to promote different aspects of our reading list system.

These infographics have all been created using Venngage (https://venngage.com/)

This software is freely available online although a paid subscription does give further functionality.

Our first infographic made use of our Google Analytics data.

This was presented to our University’s Learning, Teaching & Assessment Committee in a report on the projects progress.

This was well received and the Committee were keen on us doing more to promote the most used lists in some further way…

… so we produced a list of exemplar reading lists.

This list of exemplar reading lists was incorporated in to an infographic and is used to show academic staff good quality lists.

In another infographic we wanted to promote to staff how we had nearly completed all module reading lists (to get stragglers to complete)

This was used as a promotion on our internal intranet MyAnglia and a smaller version was emailed to all academic staff.

The promotion worked as we now have a number of departments at 100% compliance and overall we have 94% compliance.
