What and Why:

My fully realized project is a mild combination of both of my experiments but it is ultimately leaning more toward my first experiment which was the infographic. I wanted to make a final product that is the most easily comprehensible and digestible explanation of the initial question that answers it in a short amount of time. I realized a podcast might not achieve that specific goal because of its length and an infographic might be too cluttered and unclear. Thus I ended on a brochure because it is a more organized version of an infographic but can still include a lot of the information and interactive pieces that I could include. In my opinion, a brochure is the best way to join the conversation and answer the question of, “How, as a University of Michigan student, can I best consume and find news that will keep me informed and interested in current events?” Through my brochure, I hope to reach University of Michigan students to answer this question by providing something that people can easily pick up but also something that’s organized and easily digestible. I, again, hope to publish this piece both online and place it on campus for students to easily access.

Without further ado, here is my fully realized project:
