=Standards Based Grading=

**Color Scheme:**


The color scheme of the infographic will be like the one above, with a black background, different shades of red, and white (used mainly for the text).

Layout:
For my layout, since there are multiple concepts that take part with Standards Based Grading, I will have sections that pertain to each concept. For example, the actual Grading Scale, the standards, the conversion between numeric and letter grades, the relearn-redo process, and also the success skills.

Elements:
I am planning on using a timeline graphic for the relearn redo process. Similar to this, where the circle will explain each part, along with text around it to further articulate the benefits.

I will also incorporate the "school" aspect in some way, whether each section is like a sheet in a notebook, or if the information is presented on a "blackbaord", pencils, chalk font, etc... As of now, I am most keen on the idea of each section being on a post it note, with a pushpin that's pinned onto the black background.

Proposal:
For this project, I will create a sophisticated, yet student friendly infographic that describes the elements of Standards Based Grading. I will email Mrs. Bosanec to get her input on my designs and what all she wants to be incorporated into the infographic. My color scheme will be similar to the first image on this page, shades and tints of black and red, since this will resemble the school colors. I have also decided that each part to SBG, whether it will be the proficiency scales or the relearn redo process, each one will be on a separate post it note, like the one above. For the proficiency scales, I am planning on using an image that reflects 1-4, that many people can relate to like a burger or ice cream scoops. To satisfy my client, I will incorporate their ideas with mine, so both parties are happy with the outcome. Other details of my proposed infographic can be seen in the details listed above, as well as my thumbnails in my sketchbook.
