In this direction, the FATIH Project was initiated in our country in order to provide equality of opportunity in education and training and to improve the technology in our schools. EBA (Educational Informatics Network) social education platform was established to meet the content requirement of FATIH Project. This study was conducted to investigate the use of concept maps and infographics found on the Educational Informatics Network platform (EIN) of teachers and students according to relatoinal screening model. Document review have been done for classification of the concept maps and infographics in the EBA platform. Teachers and students from Şanlıurfa province Eyyübiye, Haliliye and Karaköprü districts are recruited to the study according to simple purposive sampling. 370 teachers and 383 students are participated in this study. All data analysed on Statistical Package for the Social Sciences program. According to the findings obtained in the research, both students and teachers stated that the lessons were more enjoyable and fluent with EBA. The data obtained from the concept maps and the infographics showed similarities. Concept maps and infographics are found to be partially useful. It has been determined that there is not enough concept map and infographic in the EIN platform at the results of study. Teachers' usage levels of concept maps and infographics available on the platform were found to be low. It is recommended to provide in-service training about content production for teachers and to prepare concept map and infographic in a systematic way according to the achievements in the curriculum. It is also suggested that the concept maps and infographics present on the platform should be classified according to class levels, lectures and topics and divided into categories.
