This study aims to determine the impact of Industry 4.0 innovations, namely infographics and product modelling, on students' academic performance and visual thinking skills. The experiment involved 164 students. Teaching tools promote the student's academic performance and visual thinking. The average grade of academic performance was higher in the experimental group (15.70) than in the control group (13.73) after testing. The statistical analysis (t = 2.620) provided evidence supporting the research hypothesis that students who utilised infographics and modelling exhibited significantly enhanced visual thinking skills compared to the students in the control group. These studies allow the development of a paradigm of infographics for further understanding of its capabilities in the process of education. Subsequent scientific papers may study the influence of infographics and modelling on students of other professional fields. It is also necessary to study their influence on other mental parameters, such as cognitive load, motivation, involvement, and others.
