1. Start with a Biography source to learn who the person is.

2. Use a Geometry Concept source to explain the math clearly.

3. Use Images/Diagrams that are legal to use (Creative Commons).

4. Add 2–3 sources at the bottom of your infographic.

The following are research sites that EVERYONE is able to use:

1. 1. Go to canva.com

   2. Log in with your school account

   3. Click Create a Design

   4. Search for Infographic or Poster

   5. Choose a design that is simple and not cluttered

TOP SECTION

• Mathematician’s name

• Portrait or image

• Birth/death dates
  
  

MIDDLE SECTION (MOST IMPORTANT)

• Geometry concept or contribution

• Diagram, shape, or visual that explains the math

• 2–4 short sentences explaining the concept in your own words
  
  

BOTTOM SECTION

• Fun fact or quote

• Sources (2–3 websites)

• Click Text on the left menu

• Use Headings for titles

• Use Body text for explanations

• Keep sentences short

• Avoid large paragraphs

Rule: If it takes longer than 20 seconds to read, it is too much text.

• Use Elements for shapes, arrows, and lines. 

• Use Photos or Uploads for portraits and diagrams. 

• Make sure visuals explain the geometry concept.

RULE: ✔ Good visuals explain the math, ✘ Random pictures do not earn points 

• Use no more than 2 fonts. 

• Use 2–3 main colors. 

• Leave empty space. 

• If it looks crowded, delete something.

• Add a small section labeled "Sources" at the bottom. 

• Example: 

  • MacTutor–Euclid

  • Britannica–Pythagoras

  • Khan Academy–Geometry

• Download as PNG or PDF. 

• Make sure your name is on the infographic. 

• Check spelling and readability.
