SUMMARY:Designing Infographics in PowerPoint
DESCRIPTION:The “infographics” style of presenting information and 
 telling visual stories is popular both for internal reporting and for 
 trying to reach and teach the general public. There are many desktop and 
 online tools that can be used to compose static infographics\, but we will 
 focus on Microsoft PowerPoint because so many people have free access to it 
 on campus and already have some comfort with it as a visual communications 
 tool. This workshop will give a brief introduction to graphic design and 
 storytelling principles\, as well as hands-on practice with using 
 PowerPoint to create icons and other vector shapes to combine with text and 
 visualizations to tell compelling and eye-catching data stories. There are 
 no prerequisites\, but some experience using PowerPoint will be helpful.
