Dr. Hartman, I am a very visual learner.

I know that I learn best from presentations and demonstrations because I can see the information. Using infographics is a great way to reach the other visual learners like me. I focused on the calories in burgers. It has been an ongoing joke in my family that burgers are the best food ever because I dont eat beef, so this is my way of getting the information back at them in educational way. veryone needs to know the outrageous amount of calories in these burgers! I wanted to my infographic to be clear in showing that we dont always know how bad for you the things we are eating. I do think that I showed the "wow# factor of the amount of calories in each. I believe I got my point across, and would make people rethink before ordering them. $verall with the use of humor and visual aids I think I hit all the key elements spot on. %y information is &uick and easy to read, as well as entertaining with humor. I had a hard time really determining which topic under our umbrella I wanted to go with, so I have multiple drafts and sketches of ideas. I made changes of topics and then narrowed in. I think process work really helped me understand and figure out my main focus of my flyer. I tried to use the senses to the best of my ability. 'he graph was to help with individuals that remember information best in that format. 'he pictures were to show the actual burgers and maybe even leave them drooling. I do think that I could have been more creative with the color scheme and design elements. I think I did a good job, but I was restricted by the website to really showcase all my ideas of design. %y grammar has always been my low skill set, but I feel that with the shorter sentences there were fewer opportunities to make mistakes. $verall I think these types of assignments are my favorite. It is in my element to do design bases information having a prominent artistic side. I am confident in this assignment and I am thankful for the opportunity of creating something other than a paper.
