3. Online tool rating and review

Online tool: Canva

• Difficulty: (2/5) This is my first time using Canva, it is quite easy and fun to use compared with Adobe Photoshop, I could find the clip art in Canva without google and corp the image. 
• Usefulness: (3/5) In my opinion, Canva is very useful for information design work, it had saved me a lot of time from searching images and crops. However, the weakness is the image is limited to use because it needs to pay for certain images and background.
• Design templates/Choices:  (3.5/5) There is not a lot of free designs and image that is related to my topic, but gratefully the image colour can change to what I need.

REFLECTIONS

In this FLIP topic, I have learned different types of infographics, online tools, Manual Lima, good and bad infographic design. Every time there was a task, we will have a group meeting to discuss and distribute the work. Whit this opportunity, I get to know my teammates. Other than group work, we did introduce ourselves and our interests, it is quite nice to know each other. I really hope that we could meet everyone in one day.
