As you have learned, you can use the brochure format to
present information on specific topics for a target audience. For example, you
can create a brochure that explains how to engage in a specific activity, such
as preparing for an earthquake or finding a job, or that provides information
about a topic, such as charitable opportunities in your community or fire
prevention tips. You can use the Internet as a source for information on just
about any topic. To complete this case study, you collect information for a
brochure on a subject of your choice, and then write the text for the

As you have learned, you can use the brochure format to
present information on specific topics for a target audience. For example, you
can create a brochure that explains how to engage in a specific activity, such
as preparing for an earthquake or finding a job, or that provides information
about a topic, such as charitable opportunities in your community or fire
prevention tips. You can use the Internet as a source for information on just
about any topic. To complete this case study, you collect information for a
brochure on a subject of your choice, and then write the text for the brochure.

1. Determine a topic for your brochure. Think of your own
interests and then think about how you can share information about them with
others. For example, if you are interested in skiing, you could create a
brochure containing information about the top five ski resorts in your area. If
you are interested in computer games, you could create a brochure describing
winning strategies for specific games. 2. Open Research_11.docx located in the
Project.11 folder included with your Data Files, and then save the document as
Informational Brochure Content in the same folder. This document contains a
table you can complete with information about your brochure and a table to
record Web references. 3. Research information about your chosen topic. Use the
Internet if you wish, but make sure to rewrite any information you find on the
Internet in your own words. As you research, keep track of the Web sites from
which you adapt content. You need to include the Web site addresses of these
sites in the project document. 4. Complete the table in the document with the
topics, subtopics, and text you would include in your informational brochure.
Write approximately 200 words for each of the three topics. Make the text
lively and interesting to read. Note that your intention is not to fit the text
into a trifold brochure. For this exercise, you want to focus only on creating
interesting text. 5. Copy the Web site addresses of the Web sites you consulted
into the source table provided. 6. Type your name in the footer where
indicated, and then print a copy.
