[SOLVED] health issues discussed during the semesterhealth issues discussed during the semester

Your research project is designed so that you can investigate and learn more about health issues discussed during the semester and to hone your writing and computer skills.
. In creating a health brochure, you will need to brainstorm topics for your individual brochure. Once you have chosen a topic, you will need to research it thoroughly. This will entail searching online journals, library resources and information offered by organizations.  You can create an outline for the information that you plan on including in your brochure and discuss it with me.
You will create your own brochure using the information you have gathered on your chosen topic. Each brochure will include pictures, facts, and resources. They can be created using Microsoft Word, Microsoft Publisher or other computer software. You can download free templates at internet sites such as www.myscrapnook.com. In areas where computer access is limited, you can create a brochure by hand using 8 ½ X 11 cardstock or heavy paper, pictures cut from magazines or other sources, and text printed neatly and clearly. However, printed versions completed on a computer are preferred over those created by hand & cut/pasted.
The following are guidelines for creating the brochure:
The information should be brief (5-10 min read)
You may use the half-fold or tri-fold design. A printed version (rather than one made by hand) is preferred.
Be sure to include a title for the brochure, graphics/pictures, headings and subheadings
Pictures or graphs you include must have a citation underneath them.
Don’t forget to list contacts (organization help lines, e-mail addresses, ULRs, etc.) where readers can access more information and help.
Your name needs to be on the brochure.
