The purpose of this homework was to use some of the data presentation types we had learnt about in a real context. Infographics are widely used nowadays and often contain pie charts and bar charts as well as more exotic kinds of graphs.
Homework submitted was varied.
Examples of charts and graphs
Some just gave examples of charts with explanations. I assume this is because they were not sure what an infographic was. It would be good to do at least a quick search for infographics or ask if there is any confusion over the task in future.
Obesity infographics
It was great to see that some had jumped on a relevant topic for the school at present. That is a perfect example of what I was looking for and how data can be used.
Same data for multiple charts
Infographics use different charts for different information. You would usually need more than one set of data to start to tell the story about a topic. You wouldn't use different charts to show the same data.
Personal topics
Many chose to explore topics of their personal interest. I thought some of these were just fantastic and I was particularly impressed by the amount of work that must have gone into some of them
Here were some (not all) of the best imho.
