Description

Attached below is my topic and it is needed to be revise a little bit, then go to the Pitkochart website to make the infographic based on the proposal. The procedure of making the chart is given in the attachment. Please read the instruction carefully before moving on.

Also, I attached a Pitkochart I did previously. It is not completed and needed to add a lot of information. Just take it as reference.

Step 1 Look at examples of technology-related infographics to become familiar with the design and components, • "Googling Yourself and Why It Is Important" Infographic: https://www.backgroundcheck.org/the-google-yourselfchallenge/ • "Printing the Human Body: How It Works and Where It's Headed" Infographic: http://visual.ly/printing-human-body-how-it-works-and-whereits-headed • "The Gamification of Education" Infographic: http://visual.ly/gamification-education • "QRC vs.NFC: Which Will Reign Supreme in the Battle to Replace Your Credit Card?" Infographic: http://www.nerdgraph.com/qr-vs-nfc-which-willreign-supreme-in-the-battle-to-replace-your-credit-card/ • "Dating Digitally" Infographic: http://www.pewinternet.org/2013/10/21/online-dating-2/ Important! Be sure to also review "What is an Infographic?" in Stage 1 of the Infographic Project for best practices in creating an infographic. Step 2 Research further (before creating the Infographic in Piktochart) as a continuation of the sources you initially identified in your Infographic proposal to identify all sources to obtain both information and statistical data for your infographic for your emerging technology innovations topic, focus (answer the ONE question), industry, and target audience(s). You will need 3-5 relevant and reputable sources (text and statistical data) that will be integrated into the Infographic and referenced in the Sources section of the Infographic. Important! For a list of sources to obtain additional information and/or statistical data for your infographic as needed, see Information and Statistical Data Sources in Stage 1 of the Infographic Project in this unit. Step 3 Draft the "Story" of your infographic, which includes a beginning, middle, and end with a clear focus (i.e., answer the ONE question). Consider thereadability of your text for your target audience(s) and write in plain language. Tip! Chunk your information. Keep in mind, an infographic typically is comprised of 4 (or more) blocks or sections in a relatively narrow space. Keep it simple and straightforward. Include the following sections in your infographic: • Infographic Title * • Introduce the emerging technology * • How the emerging technology works • History/evolution of the emerging technology • Target audience * • Benefits/opportunities and/or challenges/problems/implications with applicable IT theory * • Future Direction • Sources * Note: Items with an (*) asterisk are required. The other items are 'optional' and are to be included as applicable to add value to the infographic. Step 4 Create a 'free' account on Piktochart, a web-based tool, to create your infographic. Go to: http://piktochart.com/ Refer to the following resource to assist you in using Piktochart: • Piktochart Basics: http://support.piktochart.com/hc/en-us • • Step 5 Design the infographic (in Piktochart). Choose from a 'theme' (template) or start from scratch. There are 8 ready-made themes (templates, as shown below) available in the free version that can assist you in creating your Infographic, or you can start from a blank page ("PRO" templates cost a fee). See: https://piktochart.com/templates/ Note: Be aware that you may need to modify and customize a theme if you select one of Piktochart's free template as you build your infographic. You could also choose to start from scratch with a blank canvas. Step 6 Colors and Extras (in Piktochart). Select colors, background (solid is recommended), icons, text, fonts, etc., for your design. Keep in mind that an effective infographic incorporates elements of good design: visually appealing; images and icons contribute to the overall message and support the data; color and font choices are legible and enhance the design; text, images, and data are organized well on the infographic with effective use of space to communicate ideas. Piktochart's "icons" work well for the visuals in your infographic. You may also use images outside of Piktochart, if desired, but you will need to consider file size (save smaller image file sizes) and resolution as you upload and insert the images into your infographic. Tip! If you are going to use graphic images from outside of Piktochart, you can obtain images with a "Creative Commons License" that gives permission to use others' images. Do an "Advanced Search" on Flickr (see: https://www.flickr.com/creativecommons/) and enter your keywords in the Search box and then scroll down and select the option "Only search with Creative Commons-licensed content." Step 7 Build the pieces (sections) of your infographic (in Piktochart): • Title of Infographic (required). • Introduction (required) that explains what you are about to share with a basic stat or fact to start the infographic and engage viewers. Above is an example of a Title and Introduction in the "Google Yourself Challenge" infographic. How the Emerging Technology Works (optional). In the "Google Yourself Challenge" Infographic (shown below), we can see that 2 block/sections have been used to describe how the emerging technology works: • History/Evolution of the Emerging Technology (optional). This is an optional section that was not included in the "Google Yourself Challenge" Infographic; however, you may include it in your infographic. • Target Audience(s) (required). Based on the information and statistical data in the "Google Yourself Challenge" Infographic, the target audience would seem to be young adults, adults, and particularly, professionals, unemployed persons, or recent graduates who will be looking for employment at some point in time. • Benefits/opportunities and/or challenges/problems/implications with applicable IT theory (required). The inferred "benefit/opportunity" in the "Google Yourself Challenge" Infographic is that social media allows people to stay in touch with friends and family and network with others. However, the infographic clearly focuses on the "challenges/problems/implications" of sharing personal information out on the 'web' for all to see, as shown below. There are 2 sections/blocks in the infographic addressing this. • Important! The "Google Yourself Challenge" Infographic does not include the applicable IT theory, as covered in the course. Be sure to include a statement that makes a connection with the applicable IT theory, which is required. • Future Direction of the emerging technology innovation (optional). In the "Google Yourself Challenge" Infographic (shown below), we can see that the author provides guidance for the audience as to what they can do to learn more about what has been published about them on the Web and also suggested ideas of how to better protect one's identity moving forward. Sources (required) to give attribution to images, information, or statistics obtained. Here's an example of the sources used in the "Google Yourself Challenge" Infographic: Step 8 Preview your Infographic (in Piktochart). Re-examine the readability of your infographic (from Step 3) and revise, as needed. Proofread and edit your infographic for errors in grammar, punctuation, misspellings, etc., as needed. Step 9 Publish your infographic (in Piktochart). You can download the infographic image as a .jpeg or .png file Emerging Technology Innovations Infographic Proposal Make sure to include three sources below: 1. Technology Topic selected for the emerging technology innovations infographic with an introduction explaining its: 1) focus (ONE question that will be answered and will be the focus of the infographic), 2) purpose (informing, increasing awareness, educating, or convincing the target audience to take action), 3) related industry/sector, and 4) why you chose this topic. Refer to "Technology Topics for the Infographic" in Stage 1 of this project for suggested emerging technology topics. 2. Target Audience(s) selected with rationale related to the technology topic. Refer to "Target Audience for the Infographic" in Stage 1 of this project for suggested target audience(s)/groups. 3. Statistical Data and Information Sources for the infographic with citations in a Reference List following APA style format - 6th edition that will be used to tell your Infographic's "story" (e.g., how the technology works, history/evoluation of the technology, benefits/opportunities and challenges/problems and applicable IT theory, future direction). There should be at least 3-5 statistical data and information sources. All statistical data and information is to be from reputable sources and relevant. Refer to "Statistical Data and Information Sources for the Infographic" in Stage 1 of this project for recommended sources to explore. Here is my work based on the topics of 5G Technologies. Before going on to make the Infographic. Please help me to revise it based on the comments in red. Good project topic. But the scope is a bit broard—to narrow it down, you may want to focus on one specific industry/sector such as healthcare. Your infographic needs a specific focus question that will be answer, and a clear purpose. You also needed to describe why you chose the topic. Your sources were good, and there were minor errors in APA formatting. Nanotechnology Nanotechnology is a new technology that is making good progress in the world today. The target audience which the technology focuses on is health service providers, construction industry, etc. The purpose of this technology is to help manage and control matter in easier ways. Notably, the nanometer is a millionth of a millimeter. With this kind of technology, it is possible to control and manage matter at a molecular and atomic scale. Nanotechnology is defined by the US government’s National Nanotechnology Initiative as “the understanding and control of matter at dimensions of roughly 1 – 100 nanometers where unique phenomena enable novel applications” (Palmberg, Dernis & Miguet, 2009). There is an estimate that the global research funding for this technology is at around $9 billion per year. The main focus of these researches are in the health sector where better medical treatment tools can be invented using this technology, the energy sector where more efficient energy production can take place including its storage and transmission, there would be enhanced and strategic access to water that has been cleaned using this technology, and finally, materials could be manufactured which are much stronger, and lighter and would still have the ability to offer great resistance to pressure. This particular technology has been around for around 50 years now. As such, it can be considered to be a baby in terms of technological development when compared to the other technologies. Nonetheless, the science started with the discovery of atoms. This discovery is what has progressed to nanotechnology. The future of this technology includes the application of the technology in more complex medicine and farming technology There are some risks which are associated with this technology. These include the risk of pollution. Notably, there is the risk or nanopullutants which are very small particles that have the capacity to enter one’s lungs and even be absorbed by the skin. There is also the risk of privacy invasion using this technology since you would not know when they are being used on you or even in your home. In the future, there is also the threat of the technology being used to develop weaponry. Notably, the technology is applicable in the quantum theory which is involved with mechanics at an atomic level (Band & Avishai, 2012). Applications of Nanotechnology The applications of nanotechnology include: ➢ Electronics and communications – in data storage media production due to the ability to have high recoding densities. ➢ Materials and construction – used to reinforce materials. ➢ Healthcare – miniaturized diagnostic tools. ➢ Machinery – special properties in machinery like special and extremely sensitive sensors. ➢ Energy – new battery types. ➢ Environment and water – enhanced water purification equipment (Palmberg, Dernis & Miguet, 2009) In the healthcare industry, the technology is being used to offer different pathways that can improve on medical diagnosis. A lot of investment is being made in this sector by whole governments. For example, the 7th Framework Programme for Research invested around EUR 400 Million in the industry. This funding was for more than 80 research projects that were nano-medicine related (D'Silva & van Calster, 2009). In the energy field, there is potential that is provided by the technology that has the ability to enhance the energy efficiency that is currently being produced. There are opportunities that are presented by the technology that impact on conventional energy as well as renewable energy sources. The technology can be used to increase the efficiency by which energy sources such as heat, kinetic, and electricity are converted. The technology can help reduce the amounts of carbon dioxide emissions into the atmosphere (Chew et al., 2006). As far as the construction industry is concerned, the nanotechnology can be used in construction materials. Due to the components that are integrated in the technology, the construction materials are enhanced in terms of durability and performance (Makar et al., 2014). When nanoparticles are added in construction materials, they will be turned into self healing, air purifying, easy to clean and also fire resistant materials. These are just some of the examples of how the technology is being used and will continue to be used with better options in the future. References Band, Y. & Avishai, Y. (2012).
