I spent the better part of the day yesterday exploring infographics on the Digital Buzz blog (see here and here), and in the process, I decided that I wanted to start making infographics.

Here's my first:

Download Infographic_CellphonesinSchools  

Whaddya' think?  It's simple--but that's the whole point of an infographic, right? 

I chose to use PowerPoint when making this simply because it's a tool I know I'll have access to in school--so if I can figure out how to make good looking infographics with PowerPoint, I'll be able to show my kids how to do it, too.

Looking forward to your feedback---and I hope you can use this slide somewhere in your work.
