of the page.

4. The editor will open (may take a while to load depending on your internet connection).
5. Templates on the left side ribbon and choose Infographics. While editing a block, you can use
the various tools on the left side of the page;
●Elements- allows you to insert lines, shapes, icons

●Photos- allows you to search and choose photos
●Styles- allows you to modify the color scheme of your infographic
●Background- changes the background of a selected block
●Tools- allows you to create charts (similar to the ones in PowerPoint), maps (for
demographics), and videos
6. Your infographic should be about a topic that is specific to your strand. (eg. COMBI- kitchen
utensils; CSS- computer; EIM- electric wiring; HUMSS- social Science)
Editing tips:
●Double-click a text to edit the content
●When working with objects, the toolbox on top of the topmost block will allow you to
manipulate it. This is similar to working with objects in PowerPoint where you can arrange
an object to be on top or bottom of another.
●When working with charts, double-click the chart to open the datasheet editor.
To submit, download your infographics and send it to your teacher’s account in PNG format.
