Abstract

News are becoming more digital, visual and interactive. Here we look at journalistic infographics in Portuguese media. How are Portuguese media companies publishing interactive infographics? And are they doing it well? In this research, we aim to explore this multidisciplinary and multi-platform field, using a combination of qualitative interventionist and non-interventionist methods – such as literature review, case studies and practice based-research. We discovered flaws and possible solutions for better application of interaction design and user consciousness in digital journalistic infographics. The main objective was to improve routines of information designers in Portuguese media and to teach them the importance of users and the values of their experiences. We conceived an educational project to teach what interaction design is and how it can affect the way journalistic infographics are made, that works, simultaneously, as an information aggregator and a practical guide, to personalize and orientate each professional’s work.
