Autism Challenges Infographic

Posted on March 5, 2024May 8, 2025 by Maria Bo in content creation, design, elearning, Health

I will continue to design a variety of infographics that align with the themes and values of Careful Crafters. They will all carry a similar style as the last two, each with a different colour.

I decided to put together a simplified version of some of the challenges I face with being (diagnosed) neurodivergent and likely autistic. Although there are many more challenges, these are the ones that seem to be the most prevalent for me on a daily basis, and why I “don’t work” in the work sector like others do. Explaining my experience to people, has also been challenging and so sometimes it’s just easier to give them something to look at. I am also doing this to remove any stigma that comes with autism; I am not incapable, I just operate differently than other people. While this infographic looks at the challenges, I will produce another that looks at some of the qualities that comes with autism. I hope that by producing this infographic to communicate on behalf of my own challenges, that it also helps someone else. For more read my blog post: Learning with an Invisible Disability

Forest Bath Infographic

Posted on February 29, 2024June 26, 2024 by Maria Bo in content creation, design, elearning

Enjoy this infographic I made on forest bathing. If you need an infographic for your project, feel free to reach out.

Forest bathing / eco therapy is a combination of nature walking and mindful practice. From my personal experience, I recommend getting out into green space for a minimum of 1 hour – 3 times a week to feel the overall benefit from forest bathing. Don’t forget to bring a few things along with you: a journal, water, snack, small binocs and a pocket first aid kit. Give thanks to nature when you are finished. If you are unable to get into a physical green space you can also benefit from eco therapy in your home with plants, or with virtual forest bathing.

Adult Online Learning Styles Infographic

Posted on June 4, 2022June 26, 2024 by Maria Bo in elearning

infographic design of adult online learning styles

I have compiled some short examples of how to use different learning styles in online course design and development. Best practice is to employ all of the styles as it benefits everyone. Do you have a specific learning style that you gravitate to? I would say for me, I use all styles but the one that I use the most would be concrete learning as I am a very hands-on type of person.

Individual learning: working individually on a real time project.
Social learning: engaging in live workshops and a social media group.
Auditory learning: one on one instruction with me, voice overs in video examples.
Visual learning: screen grab examples, graphics and embedded videos.
Concrete learning: task of writing a blog post, producing a video, creating a graphic.
Abstract learning: reading of instructions and additional linked materials.
Logical learning: make reference to other similar technology programs.
Sensual learning: crafting stories about themselves, reflection of feelings.
