Visual rhetoric studies how deliberately designed images can affect audiences. Humans comprehend visual information more readily than verbal information through simultaneous rather than sequential processing. While we see thousands of visual messages per day, not everything viewed counts as visual rhetoric. However, visual habits and exposure can be used for persuasive purposes. Infographics are visual representations of information intended to deliver a focused message or argument quickly and memorably, and have become more prominent with the growth of the web and social media by taking complex data and distilling it into a focused visual message.

Infographics for the social sector webinar
Does your organization have loads of unused data? Information design can turn that data into understandable visuals, giving your members the right information to make choices or learn something new about your industry. Be better positioned to tell your story by learning how to make your infographics clear, compelling, and convincing. Learn how infographics can boost your website’s SEO and can aid in user engagement in this free webinar.
Why infographics are dominating the web
The infographic: a visual representation of complex data – has emerged as one of the most popular forms of social content.The way the human eye sees and reads content, diminishing attention spans, growing information overload, the unique ability to tell a visual story and the enormous viral sharing potential allowed by the medium.
Disinformation and Deepfakes: The Urgent Need for Visual Literacy
VRA 2022 Teaching Visual Literacy session. Presenter: Molly Schoen
Our everyday lives are more saturated in images and videos than any other time in human history. This fact alone underscores the need to implement visual literacy skills in all stages of education, from pre-K to post-grad. Learning how to read images with critical, analytical eyes is crucial to understanding the world around us as we see it represented in the news, social media, advertisements, etc. New technologies have exasperated this already urgent need for visual literacy education. Synthetic media, deepfakes, APIs, bot farms, and other forms of artificial intelligence have many innovative uses, but bad actors also use them to fan the flames of disinformation. We have seen the grave consequences from this age of disinformation, from undermining elections to attempts to delegitimize science and doctors, undoubtedly raising the death toll from the COVID-19 pandemic. What do we need to know about these new forms of altered images made by artificial intelligence? How do we discern between real, human-made content versus fakes made by computers, which are becoming more and more difficult to discern? This paper aims to raise awareness of how new forms of visual media can manipulate and deceive the viewer. Audience participants will learn how to empower themselves and their peers into being more savvy consumers of visual materials by understanding the basics of AI and recognizing the characteristics of faked media.

ABSTRACT: Seeing Beyond the Chart: How to cultivate critical thinking through visualization. Data, “the oil of the digital era”, has come to be the most valuable resource of our modern society. As a scientist, I find it exciting to see news outlets using more and more data graphics to communicate facts, stakeholders increasingly rely on data analytics to gain insight into our world and make informed decisions, and governments increasingly promote and engage in open data. In the meantime, it is also daunting to witness how destructive fake news, rumours and falsehoods can be to a general population poorly prepared to engage in evidence-informed reasoning.
In this talk, I will discuss one of the most important societal challenges of our times: visualization literacy, defined as the ability to understand, find, collect, interpret, and support arguments using visual representations of data. Through a sample of my recent research projects focusing on visualization creation, visual communication and visualization education, I will share my reflections on how we can cultivate an informed citizenry capable of critical thinking, reasoning, and knowledge-based decision making.
Data visualization introduction
Data visualization is the graphical representation of information and data. It is used to communicate data or information clearly and effectively to readers by leveraging the human mind's receptiveness to visual information. Effective data visualization can improve transparency and communication, answer questions, discover trends, find patterns, see data in context, support calculations, and present or tell a story. Common tools for data visualization include charts, graphs, maps, and diagrams. Specialized roles involved in data visualization include data visualization experts, data analysts, business intelligence consultants, tool-specific consultants, business analysts, and data scientists.
How to start generating leads with infographics
Infographics are a powerful way of communicating information since they combine data and visual images - left brain and right brain - thereby making it easier to digest, remember and share information.
They get shared more frequently on social media than a simple text-only post with the same information.
Creating infographics for your website can get you more traffic.
So how do we go about creating effective infographics that tell our brand story through data visualisation? And how do we promote those infographics to drive real, qualified leads for our sales team?
In this presentation we show you:
- What infographics are and why you should care
- The "dos and dont's" of Infographic creation
- How to optimise your infographic for lead generation
- How to promote your infographic
- Measure and optimise your infographic campaign
- Make your storytelling more effective through infographics

6 Visual Communication Hacks to Increase Productivity
This document discusses 6 visual communication hacks to increase productivity. It begins by outlining why visual communication matters, noting humans remember 80% of what they see. Examples of visual communication in the workplace include data visualization, presentations, diagramming, mind mapping, and GIFs/videos. Specific hacks highlighted are using swim lane diagrams, customer journey mapping, data linking, bug reporting with screenshots, instructional videos, and using screen recording for quick feedback. The future of workplace communication is predicted to involve more visuals and collaboration tools.
The Future of Infographics
In this presentation deck, created for a talk by Column Five CEO, Jason Lankow, we start out with some fundamentals from our book, Infographics: The Power of Visual Storytelling, and then discuss three important trends defining the future of infographics. These slides were talking points for the most part, but there are some really helpful examples and we would also be happy to walk through this content with you anytime if you would like to understand the details at a more granular level and to discuss ways these trends impact your organization.
The evolution and importance of visual communication
What we see with our eyes has a profound effect on what we do, how we feel, and who we are. Through experience and experimentation, we continually increase our understanding of the visual world and the way we are influenced by it. Psychologist Albert Mehrabian states that 93% of communication is nonverbal.01 Studies show that the human brain deciphers image elements simultaneously, while language is decoded in a linear, sequential manner taking more time to process. Our minds react completely differently to visual stimuli. Visuals are processed 60,000 times faster than text...

The document discusses how web conferencing solutions like Zoom saw explosive growth with the rise of remote work and learning during the COVID-19 pandemic. It notes that while these tools allow communication without physical presence, online meetings and classes can lack interactivity and body language. To keep audiences engaged, the document recommends using a visualizer device to display materials spontaneously and reset attention spans, as visual content is better retained than text-heavy slides. Integrating the visualizer's live camera feed into conferencing platforms like Zoom allows for flexibility and interaction lacking in static presentations.
The Art of Visual Storytelling
Visual storytelling has become an important skill in today's digital age where attention spans are short. Stories told through visual mediums like images and video are more engaging and memorable than text alone. They can take various forms from infographics and comics to social media posts and videos. Telling stories visually helps organizations effectively communicate their brand messages and stories to audiences and stand out in a world where we are constantly bombarded with information.

Digital Storytelling
Digital storytelling involves using technology to combine narratives, images, sound, and video for various purposes. The development process is important alongside the final product. It promotes higher-order thinking by engaging students through visual, auditory, and kinesthetic learning styles. Digital storytelling allows people to remember stories created through multimedia better than through other forms of communication alone.
Visual literacy ppt
Visual literacy refers to the ability to interpret, use, and create visual media to advance thinking, communication, and learning. It is a learned skill rather than an inherent ability. While seeing images does not necessarily lead to visual literacy, visuals have become a dominant form of communication in today's digitally connected world. We are exposed to thousands of visual messages daily through various media. Incorporating visuals into teaching has been shown to significantly increase recall and engagement compared to using only audio. As visual literacy grows in importance, educators will need to learn skills to effectively incorporate relevant visual content into their lessons.
Infographics And The Brain
This document summarizes Stephen Few's presentation on designing effective infographics. He discusses how most infographics fail to properly inform because they do not present information in a way that can be easily perceived and understood by the brain. Few focuses on designing visualizations based on principles from research in data visualization and cognitive psychology in order to create graphics that clearly tell stories from data. He provides many examples of ineffective infographic designs and explains how simplifying information and following design best practices can create visuals that actually inform people.

Pitfalls of Science Communication
1. Many people resist scientific arguments not due to lack of education, but because the arguments are perceived as hostile to their values.
2. Highly educated groups tend to be the most polarized in their views on issues like vaccination and climate change.
3. This resistance stems from "identity-protecting cognition" where people seek out and accept information that confirms their preexisting beliefs while disregarding information that contradicts their values.
Rhetorical Dimensions of Open Letters
This document discusses the genre of open letters, which have two levels of audience - an explicit audience addressed in the letter and an implicit audience that the letter aims to persuade. Open letters maintain the fiction of addressing the explicit audience while also making an argument to the implicit audience. A key example is Martin Luther King Jr.'s "Letter from Birmingham Jail", which is explicitly addressed to clergymen but implicitly aims to persuade white moderates. The document provides tips for writing an effective open letter, such as deciding the audiences, identifying the purpose, and choosing an appropriate tone.

Pitfalls of Science Communication
1. Many people resist scientific arguments not due to lack of education, but because the arguments are perceived as hostile to their values.
2. Highly educated groups tend to be the most polarized in their views on issues like vaccination and climate change.
3. This resistance stems from "identity-protecting cognition" where people seek out and accept information that confirms their preexisting beliefs while disregarding information that contradicts their values.
Rhetorical Dimensions of Open Letters
This document discusses the genre of open letters, which have two levels of audience - an explicit audience addressed in the letter and an implicit audience that the letter aims to persuade. Open letters maintain the fiction of addressing the explicit audience while also making an argument to the implicit audience. A key example is Martin Luther King Jr.'s "Letter from Birmingham Jail", which is explicitly addressed to clergymen but implicitly aims to persuade white moderates. The document provides tips for writing an effective open letter, such as deciding the audiences, identifying the purpose, and choosing an appropriate tone.
