Transformation


I have wanted to teach myself how to make an infographic for the past two years. I finally had the time and patience to do so this afternoon. I used piktochart to make this. It took as long as I typically compose a post. I am so proud of what I learned how to do today! I hope you enjoy the titles I shared. They have influenced my life and my teaching too. Happy Friday!

  1. Oh, Beth! It looks really good!

    Piktochart is awesome, isn't it? (So nice that it's free.) If you get really into creating these, lmk. Kevin Hodgson provided me with a bunch of other sites that allows you to make them too. I've tried them, but personally I like Piktochart the best.

  2. I love the idea for creating an infographic. I will have to look into Piktochart! I like the way you summed up the messages in the books. I love all of those books for the way they helped me reframe my thinking about learning.

    1. Make sure you set aside some time. As with most things, it takes longer than you think!

  6. Thanks for adding something to my to-do list for next week, Beth. I recently made an infographic to explain a new legislative requirement to principals, but it wasn't nearly as attractive as yours. Can't wait to give piktochart a try!
