Infographic Assignment:

In lesson 1 we learned about the 4 factors of Energy Provision, which include reliability, security, accessibility, and sustainability. We also reviewed Goal #7 of the Sustainable Development Goals established by the Earth First Summit. Now you’re going to engage in an activity to demonstrate your understanding of how these concepts relate to and impact one another through the creation of an infographic.

Purpose of this infographic:

To successfully complete this assignment, you will create an infographic that illustrates a connection between one of the Goal 7 targets and as many of the 4 factors as possible.

Communicating Visually:

As you begin to work on your infographic, keep in mind that a single target from Goal #7 can be applied to more than 1 factor. This means you’ll need to spend some time thinking about the various connections and how to demonstrate them in the most concise and effective manner possible. You’ll need to illustrate all this information in a manner that is easily understood ‘at a glance,’ meaning there shouldn’t be any additional resources or information one should need to read in order to understand what you are trying to communicate. For example, if you feel the second target described in the SDG #7 aligns with security and reliability, you’ll need to visually communicate these connections. 

Successfully Completing this Assignment:
