PIKTOCHART Piktochart is a fairly easy way to create attractive infographics, statistical charts and presentations without any prior knowledge of graphic design. It offers tem - plates along with a selection of icons, images, and diagram and text design options plus a large number of additional graphic design elements that can be edited to suit one’s needs. Compared to other beginner-level tools, Piktochart offers a large range of options to personalise one’s products. The basic version is free to use. A fee is payable for the pro version, however educational institutions and NGOs benefit from discounted rates. IMAGE DATABASES Users who wish to visualise and design products and materials will need suitable images, icons, symbols or clipart to make them really attractive and attention-grabbing. An online session, worksheet or flyer will look and feel much more appealing if they incorporate additional design features. The challenge is finding copyright-free, licence-free and free-of-charge images or icons
