1. List the active reading strategies identified in the texts you read
   for this module. Decide which ones will be included in the document you
   design to teach fellow SLU students about Active Reading.
2. Decide the look, design, and platform (brochure, bookmark, flyer) for your document.
   • What app works best for designing the kind of document you’re
     making? Is there a template available that can save you the trouble of
     designing the layout of the page? (Hint: Windows users might consider MS
     Publisher, and Mac users might consider Apple’s Pages. Each of those
     apps has plenty of available, creative templates to get you started.)
   • What color scheme, font make sense for what you are trying to do?
   • How can you share things you make in that app? (Hint: most apps can export or print to PDF.)
3. Decide what content goes where.
   • What do the students you are teaching need to know to be able to read actively?
   • In what order do they need to learn those things, and how will they navigate the document?
   • What legal graphics, pictures, fonts, colors, spatial layout would
     help them understand the concepts you are trying to teach them?
4. Write your content and build your document.
5. Annotate your final document, justifying or explaining the choices
   you made in it by providing at least 8-10 separate annotations.

Additional side notes:

1. Choose to design your own flyer, bookmark, or brochure.
2. You should have an overall purpose/theme for your design.
3. Make sure that any images used are cited in a Works Cited in proper
   MA format (you can use easybib.com for example to assist you.
4. In your writing, include the terminology you have been learning in
   this module. Use it to help explain and justify what you chose the
   images you did, colors, font style, every piece of the work you are
   designing. “I like it” is not a good response.
5. Details are important, so think about the project you are designing,
   why, and use the terminology of the module to assist you in writing
   about it. Be sure to run grammarly or MSWord grammar check before
   submitting.
6. While there is no word limit per se, think about 400-500 words, as
   that provides plenty of room to discuss your choices. At the same time,
   make sure you are writing concisely and precisely–not wordy.

Please let me know if you have any questions. thanks in advance.
