Introduction

In this assignment, you will take some time to think and create an interactive poster about a VERY special and EXTREMELY important person... YOU :)

 

Instructions

Use Canva to create an interactive poster about yourself. Include in your poster the information listed below along with any other information that you would like others to know. Be original and creative! 


Hyperlinks: This is where the Interactive part comes in. A Hyperlink is a word, group of words or image that you can click on to jump to another document or image. The Hyperlink symbol in Canva (and in most applications) looks like a chain, similar to the image below. 


Creating Your Poster

Information That Should Be Included In Your Interactive Poster

Each of the requirements below MUST be hyperlinked to another website, video, and/or image in some way. For example, you can use  text to create My Favorite Movie and hyperlink it to information about your favorite movie on IMDB.com or a clip from YouTube so that when you click on the text box, you are automatically directed to information about your favorite movie on IMDB.com OR YouTube. For your Favorite Song, you could have this hyperlinked to a website displaying the lyrics to your favorite song or to a YouTube video of your favorite song.
