"Full lecture video ~ Presentation Slides ~ Dr. Mayer Bio ~ Background reading

Wouldn't it be great if creating infographics was just as simple as writing regular ole text-based blog posts? Unfortunately, the reality is that making visual content like this usually takes a lot more time, effort, and let's face it -- skill -- than the written word. 


Usually.But considering the popularity and effectiveness of visual content in marketing today, you can't just afford to throw in the towel. That's why we decided to take all the pain and suffering out of infographic creation.

That means we have to get the great ideas to the teachers and  their students... not just telling them, but perhaps showing them...
