I chose this artifact to demonstrate my competency to analyze and interpret data and reflect on the development of instructional technology to enhance professional growth. In this infographic, I first compared Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR). Then, I reported the findings on the current state of research on AR and STEM learning, what has been done and what still needs to be investigated. In this infographic, I was able to create visuals for the data after I read and analyzed the literature on AR in education. The infographic has statistics and graphs to enable viewers to see complicated information visually from a new perspective and to enlighten them on using AR in education.

This assignment helped me expand my ability to design and create technology-supported instruction. This was my first time to create an infographic. Thus, it gave me the opportunity to use a new tool. Furthermore, this assignment increased my understanding of infographics and visual design, and it has allowed me to practice infographic design professionally. As an instructional technologist, I should be able to convert data into a visual form to convey complex ideas creatively and in an easy way to understand.
