a. What went well?

Many things went well in the infographics assignment. My group excelled and worked together very well. Everyone was assigned a role of research and a certain part and they all completed it on time and throughly. All the information was placed on a google doc for revision and then placed into the infographic. We were on time and finished everything nicely. We also found a great amount of research that helped us in the long run.

b. What did not?

Nothing really.

c. What would you do differently next time?

Maybe take a different approach at the infographic and maybe change the actual topic of the infographic.

We excelled in all the areas but the concise area because we were a bit off in the beginning based on the information. We did not know there was a pages doc we needed to put the infographic on. Everything else we pretty much excelled in. We were very concise and based the infographic on the one idea, not going on into different thoughts and ideas scattered around. We were very visual and we kept everything in line from words to pictures, conveying the ideas very nicely from words to pictures. We were smarter and the reader does not have to look too hard to understand and convey the meaning of the whole infographic. It has numbers and things that convey lots of meaning. We were a bit transparent, but that could have increased. We were also very different and changed up the plain style to a eye-catching visualization style. We remembered to use geometry and visualize differences using area. We added alot of attractiveness in the infographic; lots of pictures that go along with the text and make the visualization much nicer to look at. We added sources and "More and more information". We were also varied and pretty creative with the visualization overall. In conclusion, I believe we did a pretty good job.
