Info-graphic Responses1 (20%, due 10/10 and 11/21): You will submit 2 info-graphic responses

throughout the semester.

Instructions:

1. Choose one article OR one video OR one podcast from the list of materials we have read

so far

2. As a response to the material of your choice, create an infographic that covers, in your

own words:

a. The main argument of the material

b. 3 facts you learned from the material

c. At least one image or symbol that helps depict the main themes of the material

d. A question you would like to pose to the class

3. Please make sure to cite the sources you used to develop the infographic. This

information can be added directly to the infographic, or listed on a separate page.

I recommend using the infographic maker tool, https://www.canva.com/ or, you can illustrate

your own using pen/paper or digital drawing tools. If Canva requires you to pay to download

your infographic, just take a screenshot of your final product to submit.
