Kristen Lindahl writes, “Technology has enabled teachers to provide new, engaging ways to provide comprehensible input. Applications such as youtube.com, wherein teachers can find videos for almost any topic, to PowerPoint, which allows teachers to outline information and add graphics, video, and animation, have added dimension to comprehensible input in classrooms. Another new way to synthesize concepts to provide comprehensible input to learners is via the use of infographics. Infographics have long been used by authors and educators to analyze or show relationships via maps, graphs, time lines, and so on. Now, with many different free online tools, infographics have a new look and many different options.”
