Rogerian Infographic: Tomorrow's Table

Now that you've completed a Rogerian Argument for Tomorrow's Table, it is time to "remix" that assignment into a more visual medium. To do that, you will translate your argument into an infographic, a visual representation of information. In this infographic, all six components of your Rogerian Argument (overview of the issue, summary of opposing view, statement of understanding,  stating your position, statement of contexts, and common ground solution) should be illustrated in one of three areas: proponent, opponent, and solution. Aim for some variation of THIS configuration. Also, find samples HERE and HERE. All evidence to support your solution should come from Tomorrow's Table.

Infographics are most easily created in PowerPoint (or a comparable program). However, you may also use programs, such as Photoshop or Illustrator.

A well-executed infographic will:
  • Have a title that articulates its Rogerian Argument nature
  • Have a design inspired by the subject matter (the GMO vs organic debate), balancing it with sufficient content
  • Visually translate perspectives and facts in a clear and enlightening manner
  • Stay within the parameters of Tomorrow's Table
