Year 11, Miss Callie has started a foundation (SAES - Students in Action: Education Soweto).

There is a "public service challenge" being offered by Capella University in which the winner will receive $10,000 to support their charity. This prize would go a long way in helping fund this project.

Part of the selection process will be based on how many hits this video has. (Chris Larsen put together this video - Thank you Christopher;-)

Let's show our support by voting for Miss Callie's video: http://publicservicechallenge.com/vote.php?vid=e9ufxWcobKo

VOTE NOW AND VOTE OFTEN

You can vote once in each 24 hour period.

Year 8 - the PLAN - Criterion C
Under test conditions, FOLLOW this plan and hand in the final product when you finish for grading. Remember you only have this double to finish.


June 6 was World Environment Day. To show our support we will use our Publisher 2007 skills to create "door hangers" with an environmental message that we can display around the school.

Your design specification is as follows: Your door hanger must be colourful, must be eye-catching, must have an appropriate environmental message/slogan, and must include 2 images/clipart, must include correct spelling.


Let's start:

1. Find an environment message or slogan on the internet,
2. Find images to enhance your door hanger,
3. Open Publisher 2007,
4. Click on Blank Page Sizes,
5
. Click on Create Custom Page - 10.0 x 29.0 (this is in centimeters),
6. Add some creativity,
7. Proofread,
8. Check against design specification,
9. Cut out your door hanger and cut a circle so it can be hung,
10. Write your name on the back and submit it for grading.

That's it Year 8. You are done!

Learning Objective: with limited guidance follow a plan to further develop desktop publishing skills and techniques to create a useful object.
