Instructions:
Infographic Project Introduction
At first glance, this might seem like a simple project, but a good infographic requires a substantial amount of work. Infographics are often used to present a topic in an enjoyable and informative way to the viewer. To help develop your infographic project, it has been broken down into four sections.
Part1 : “Topic Selection and Executive Summary”
Your first step is to select and research your topic of choice. Topic selection can be anything related to the Blue Economy and technology. Each project must in some way incorporate elements of technology and the Blue Economy.
Some examples of potential topics are:
How technology will influence the Blue Economy in the future.
How has 3D printing impacted sectors in the Blue Economy?
The evolution of technology in the Fishery to reduce overfishing.
The executive summary is meant to inform the reader of your infographic’s major topics/points. The executive summary needs to demonstrate that you have researched your topic. This is an academic paper and should be supported by a variety of sources from peer-reviewed academic and professional journals.
