Exploring How Designers Apply Visual Design Principles to Create Visual Composition for Instructional Infographics

• In Event: D&D- The Practice of Instructional Design (v)

Short Description

We conducted a case study to explore how graphic and instructional designers (N = 10) applied visual design principles to compose instructional infographics (involving layout, color selection, and graphic elements). The focus of the study was to identify differences in the strategies used to create higher versus lower quality infographics that were rated across 18 design criteria. We discuss our findings and suggest specific strategies that can help designers create better visual compositions and infographics.
