Semester Project Assignment #4 – Infographic & Explainer Document

My topic is: E-Waste

Objective:
Create a persuasive infographic that clearly communicates 3–6 scientific facts related to your topic, tailored specifically for your target audience. Your infographic should not just inform—it should persuade, leading the audience toward a clear call to action.

Part 1: Infographic

Your infographic should:

1. Include 3–6 scientifically accurate facts that are relevant and compelling to your audience.
   
   • Choose facts that support your overall message and goal.
   • Use reliable, cited sources for your data.
2. Organize the facts in a logical flow that builds toward your call to action.
   
   • Guide your audience from awareness to understanding to action.
3. Include a strong, persuasive headline.
   
   • This should grab attention and frame the infographic’s purpose.
4. Balance visual and textual information.
   
   • Use icons, illustrations, charts, or other visuals to help explain each fact.
   • Keep text concise but clear—avoid overwhelming the viewer.
5. Use language and design choices that appeal to your target audience.
   
   • Consider tone, color scheme, font, and layout.
   • Think about what styles or platforms your audience is already engaging with.

Tools you can use to design your infographic:
Canva, Adobe Illustrator, InDesign, PowerPoint, Excel, Word, or any web-based infographic creator. Save and submit your final version as a PDF.

Part 2: Explainer Document (Accompanying Text)

This is a 1–2 page document that explains your choices and provides context for your infographic. Include the following:

1. Scientific Facts
   
   • List the 3–6 facts you included in the infographic.
2. Sources
   
   • Provide the original sources for your data (APA or MLA format is fine).
3. Persuasive Goal and Call to Action
   
   • What do you want your audience to think, feel, or do after viewing your infographic?
4. Design Rationale
   
   • Briefly explain how your design decisions (e.g., colors, icons, layout, tone) are intended to resonate with your specific target audience.

What to Submit:

• ✅ A PDF of your infographic (designed by you)
• ✅ A 1–2 page explainer document (Word or PDF)

Note: You will not be graded on your design or artistic skill, but on how well you adapt and present scientific information for a persuasive, audience-specific science communication goal.
