“…Additionally, perceived as a new skill area for teachers, infographics are becoming popular in both printed materials and digital media and are used for the visualisation of data (Islamoglu, Ay, Ilic, Mercimek, Donmez, Kuzu & Odabasi, 2015). Another purpose of infographics is the capability to visualise contents with detailed and complex structures in a manner that they can easily and rapidly be perceived and interpreted by viewers (Dunlap & Lowenthal, 2016;Smiciklas, 2012). As an extremely useful medium in the transfer of knowledge, infographics contribute to the presentation of information presented in complex and long texts by simplifying the data in a more easily comprehendible size.…”

Infographics have been frequently used in recent years with the purpose of the visual presentation of information. It is a visualisation method which aims at presenting any content with a visual composition, combining such elements as shapes, symbols, graphics, photographs, illustrations, and texts for the target audience. The purpose of this research is to develop an instructional design based on the ADDIE (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, Evaluation) model of infographic design as well as the determination of student and teacher opinions on the usage of infographics in teaching. The study group of the research consists of 43 teachers and 51 elementary school students from elementary schools in Cyprus who participated in the research process voluntarily. The implementation process of the study consisted of 52 hours of education in face-to-face and online learning environments with the participation of 43 elementary school teachers. The purpose of this education activity was to develop knowledge and skills in the theoretical and applied dimensions required for the design of infographics. The data collection tools used in the research were the "self-efficacy scale for the design and usage of infographics", the "opinion survey for the usage of infographics in teaching environments", a "semi-structured interview form for the design of infographics for teachers and their usage in teaching environments" and a "semi-structured interview form for elementary school students for the usage of infographics in education". According to the results of the study, the opinions of elementary school teachers on the usage of infographics and their self-efficacy for infographic design shows a significant and positive difference before and after training. Interviews were held on the usage of infographics in learning environments with the 43 elementary school teachers and 51 elementary school students after the completion of the training process. Teachers used the infographics that they had developed according to the course contents for eight weeks in their courses after the training was completed and observed the impact of infographics in terms of different dimensions. At the end of the implementation, it was found that both teachers and students had positive opinions on the usage of infographics in learning environments.

“…Despite all the existing research on new technological use in the higher education context, the literature on using infographics in teaching remains limited at best (Mc Kenna et al, 2009). Studies on the best practices in teaching that make use of infographics either as an information-sharing tool or as a method of evaluating students' work are rather scarce (Dunlap & Lowenthal, 2016;Siricharoen & Siricharoen, 2015). It is important for educators to understand how students process the information contained in infographics since infographics can provide a way to reach students with varied learning styles, particularly visual learners (Lankow et al, 2012;Smiciklas, 2012).…”

Infographics as data visualization practices, illustrate information creating a visual narrative, challenging students to visually communicate ideas and develop respective digital skills. Visual communication literature acknowledges appearance and explanation as important attributes of information graphics; however little research has been conducted so as to determine how these properties function. This paper aims to address criteria for the efficacy of infographics: an evaluation rubric has been used to examine appearance and explanation based on aesthetic and content values. Twelve (12) timeline infographics have been collected from Higher Education students who produced their digital artifacts in the context of the Module 'Design and development of Educational Material and Digital Media' which is a Thematic Unit of Masters Program 'Language Education for Refugees and Migrants' of the Hellenic Open University (HOU). Analyzed data revealed characteristics of timeline infographics regarding functionality and esthetics.

Business intelligence offers the capability to gain insights and perform better in decision-making by using a particular set of technologies and tools. A company's success to a certain extent depends on customers. The complementary of business intelligence and customer relationship management will improve the efficiency of organizations, hence increase productivity and revenue. Most research works on implementation of business intelligence and customer relationship management in organizations commonly concentrate on architecture, framework, and maturity model. The process on how to implement business intelligence and customer relationship management in an organization, especially in smaller domains has not yet been clarified which make some organizations unclear on how to implement business intelligence and customer relationship management. Thus, this study investigates the process involved in the implementation of business intelligence and customer relationship management among clinics. An infographic guideline was developed based on the six process of data mining which is known as Cross Industry Standard Process for Data Mining. Four elements of business intelligence decision-making process which were gather, store, access, and analyze were also included in the process of developing the guideline. Findings from an expert's review show that the increase of Content Validity Index was 0.7, from 0.3 during the first iteration to 1.0 in the second iteration. Therefore, this result is acceptable. The guideline appears to be a useful instrument for practitioners to implement business intelligence and customer relationship management in their clinics, however the process involved in developing the guideline could be improvised from time to time.
