Infographics are pretty popular. We share a lot of them on this site because they're an easy way to consume information. They're eye catching, the visuals tend to help people connect and remember the information, and they're easy to share with just about anyone, even non-experts in a field. They often boil down a lot of information into very manageable pieces, so for teachers, they're easy to check out and learn something quickly while browsing the internet during a lunch break or after school.

Rubrics can be an incredibly useful tool for your classroom. Aside from being one of those cool words that sounds a little weirder every time you say it, using a rubric can help your students understand the assignments in your classroom, and will make your grading process clearer, faster, and more objective and consistent.
