Once you have completed the Internet Browsing Tutorial, you will be able to create a poster showing what you have learned. You will need to include 4 things you want someone to use to help them be a better Internet Searcher. These can be any 4 things you want- just think about what you learned that will help you when researching. But this poster should not only be knowledgeable, but should look cool. Make it dynamic & interesting!
The BEST poster will be printed out (poster size) and will hang in the computer lab. The posters will be judged on both helpful facts & design.
Here are your requirements:
- The PAGE LAYOUT of the poster should be set to PORTRAIT. Margins should be set to NARROW.
- A background should be include (other than just white).
- You must use at least ONE image that relates to your poster; more specifically whatever you will be writing about.
- If you use an image from the Internet, you must cite the image in MLA guidelines as a footnote on the bottom of the page.
- Use WordArt to create a dynamic title
- Clearly type in your 4 facts/ tips.
- Include some shapes as background objects.
- Your name and year must be include on it.
Suggestions:
- Use the whole page, not just the center.
- Be sure to overlap your images- it makes it more interesting.
- Not everything has to be straight; feel free to rotate some things.
- You want your poster to be dynamic, but not busy. Sometimes if you have too much going on, it can be overwhelming to the viewer.
- Pick a theme and stick to it; sometimes less is more.
Good Luck and Have Fun!
