Travel Brochure

Have you ever gone on vacation? Where did you go? How did you learn about the place before you went there? More than likely, you used a travel brochure to learn about your destination. For the project in this unit, you will be designing a travel brochure for the perfect trip. A travel brochure is a pamphlet containing useful information about a particular place, including various facts, pictures, and other special points of interest. Travel brochures are designed to sell the destination to a traveler. If the traveler likes what he or she sees, the destination may be visited. Before you design your own travel brochure, take some time to find models of travel brochures online. Using your favorite Internet search engine, type the key words travel brochure pdfs to find examples. What do you notice about the brochures? How are they written? How do they attract readers? How do the designers use techniques such as layout, images, and font to influence the intended audience? In Book I of Utopia, More outlined several of the predominant problems in European society. In Book II, More designed a place of perfection in Utopia, but he did so addressing many of the problems in 16th century Europe. For example, 16th century European kings were greedy and desired property. In More’s Utopia, private land ownership did not exist. You have already identified significant problems with the United States today in lesson 5, so basically, you have taken care of your Book I. Your travel brochure will be the equivalent of Book II of Sir Thomas More’s Utopia. You will design a brochure that features your own utopia, but you will create a utopia that addresses the problems that you identified with the United States. In addition to addressing the problems, your brochure should also contain the following information: a name for your utopia that is the title of the brochure sections that are identified with headings, such as geography and history, agriculture, cities, government, occupations, education, war, and religion details written in sentences and paragraphs underneath the headings; these details should fully explain each aspect of your utopia; write 300-500 words graphics that enhance the color and content of your brochure Remember the travel brochures you studied earlier in the lesson to get design ideas.
