Statistical Reasoning of Impact of Infographics on Education
چکیده انگلیسی

The aim of this study is to determine students' views about infographics prepared for anatomy lesson. A case study, which is one of the qualitative research method, was used as a model. The participants were the registered students for the anatomy course of the Physical Education and Sports Department (PES) at Near East University. During a six weeks educational period, the study was applied with the participation of 140 students. As a preparation, students have been informed about infographics before the study. Then, the infographics about digestive anatomy was presented to the students under the anatomy course curriculum. At the end of the course presentation, a semi-structured interview form was delivered in order to get students' opinions about infographic and “infographical anatomy” during the course. More than half of the students (n = 74) in the study stated that they did not know the meaning of the word “infographic”, and also much more students (n = 84) stated that they had never seen infographics prior to this study. In the end of the study, the students think that more effective visuals are used by infographics instead of traditional course visuals. They also think that the subject of infographics in general is more understandable and more satisfactory. Moreover, since infographics are easier to remain in the minds, they are much more effective. This study has revealed the presentation by infographics can be used in many other courses. By this research, it can be claimed that infographics are not only more effective but also more permanent in the minds. This teaching method can transmit information to the increasingly widespread use, and thus, the conventional form of lectures might be possible to transform towards easy understandable courses having much more infographics.
