For this project i designed a concept map poster for freshwater usage. I researched terminology associated with freshwater usage and then from there found some statistics. I then separated my topic into three sub topics and then visually connected them appropriately. I went with a tan, blue and tan color scheme to give it an earthy water feel. My favorite thing about my concept map is my creative pie graph.

Concept Map

I created a concept map which tracks the spread of the Bubonic plague. I divided the information into four distinct sections in order to make it easier to follow the information. I wanted to keep the color palette simple. I used black and purple to evoke a sense of disease and death without being too overtly morbid. The background is an image of piled bones. I wanted this to be very subtle to help reduce the shock factor. I created vectors of European citizens from the 1300s based off an image from a history website.

Concept map poster that illustrates the essential factors that contribute to Global Climate Change. The main goal for this poster was to let the viewer to understand global climate change as a cyclical force of nature. Every living being on earth plays a role in or is affected by our climate, so by intertwining seemingly unrelated phenomena the viewer can better understand why the earth is really just one ecosystem.

Concept Map

This is a concept map explaining the concept of the Spread of Illness. It is essentially a visual web of ideas detailing all the factors that went into one of the deadliest pandemics in history, the Spanish Flu. 

My overarching goal with this assignment was to show that many factors are interrelated in the spread of an illness. I achieved this by creating a composition that seemed to go everywhere in a way similar to the spread of a virus. The path of my chart also changes depending on which route you take, and some paths lead to the same place, showing this interrelated nature.

"Concept Map"

A Concept Map is a specific kind of information graphic that explains a topic by connecting its major ideas and terms through a series of "linking words", making up "framing sentences". I chose to research and to make a concept map about the spread of a particular kind of illness. I created a concept map about the spread of the illness called "Malaria". I included information such as its cause, transmission, symptoms, treatment, and prevention.

Title: Concept Map: Civil Rights Movement Post WWII

Instructor: Natalie Davis

I created a concept map influenced by Venn Diagrams illustrating the history of the Civil Rights Movement after 1945. I created two infographics, one is a timeline of the history with dates, the other showing the difference in African American registered voters in 1945 and 2010.
