How your Infographic Poster relates to your Capstone Project. Did you have to do more research to complete your poster? What was the easiest and hardest thing about creating the infographic? Did you create your infographic in the Winter Term or this semester? If in Winter Term, what additions or changes did you make? Is your poster done or do you still have some tweaking to finish?

My capstone technically breaks down different aspects of how buildings and transportation (that people need to use to get from one destination to another---a building, most of the time) and points out specific, possibly overwhelming statistics. I had to do a lot more research to complete my poster, because my January term infographic did not have any. The hardest would probably been finding legitimate statistics about certain aspects of the green movement (in relation to architecture). I have a few more things to tweak before it becomes a finished product (I plan on updating the temperature in Dallas stat every single day until as late as can be before presentation day in April).
Idea – list of possible ideas for infographic from your capstone

I'm going to put more details and in-depth statistics about green construction (aka green/ sustainable architecture, etc.) in my fixed infographic from January term.

Create a skeleton & flowchart for first draft

Statistics----->more statistics------>and even more statistics
 ---all cited, and year is posted alongside each stat---
(i.e. 80% of drivers drive cars that emit carbon monoxide, USGS 2009)
