Lydia+Brochure



The link to the Adobe Reader will lead you to a new page which details the front page, inside flap, and back page of my brochure on skin cancer. There is a button on the bottom of the new page that looks like an arrow, and when clicked will navigate you to the inside part of the brochure. The front page simply states who wrote the brochure, what the topic discussed inside is and a picture that relates to the issue covered. The page of the brochure that is to the far left of the first snapshot is what would originally be the inside flap. This inside flap serves as a lead in to the main material of the brochure. It acts as an appetizer to the main course. In my brochure, I chose to use the inside flap as a way to communicate the hope that people have of beating skin cancer. Instead of mourning the inability to prevent skin cancer, this inside flap gives information on the various ways of preventing cancer. The next three pages, shown when the right arrow is clicked on the bottom of the page, cover the main topic and issues of skin cancer. These inside flaps provide information on what skin cancer is, how it is developed, who needs to be extra careful about developing it, and the three basic kinds of skin cancer. This part of the brochure delivers most of the information that people would be looking for when dealing with skin cancer. The back page of the brochure, also on the first snapshot page, the middle part, merely gives links to where the information was found and a few more pictures.

I really enjoyed doing this project, not only because it was a creative way to do a project, but also because I have worried about skin cancer for a long time. My family is very fair skinned and I always worried that I tanned too much during the summer and would eventually end up with skin cancer when I was older. However, even though that may still be true, I can at least say that I know different ways to prevent it. I liked the creative discretion that we had while doing this project. For example, if you look at my project compared to someone else’s you can plainly see that they are not similar. I thought that this allowed the students to use their creativity instead of just following the guidelines to get a good grade. The creativity and the interesting topic of the brochure made me really enjoy doing this project more so than I would have if it was just a normal essay paper, for example. I learned a lot from this project and I again believe that that is because I enjoyed the work.
