Benefits in teaching:

Piktochart's classroom use goes two ways. You, the educator, can use it in your own lesson plans and in-class presentations. Used well, it can really distill information into understandable chunks, and kids should respond well to its sleek design. On the other hand, you can ask students to create their own infographics. Science projects? Perfect for Piktochart. History students can teach their classmates the judicial branch structure or create a World War II timeline. Even English classes could use Piktochart to diagram a book's plot or character sketches. Students can work on the web or iPad.

While putting together an infographic, they will interpret info, then create a combination of text, images, and charts or graphs to share with others.
