Reflection:

I completed a brochure with Lauren Ashworth and Brooke Moore. With this group project we were tasked to imagine a product and the company that makes it, and create a brochure promoting said product. My creative writing background assisted in imagining the product and company. The product we chose was called “Book Smarts,” a pair of glasses that instantly transmits information to your brain, and the company that we created is called “MLB.” Completing this assignment certainly relates to the course outcome of analyzing and producing writing genres commonly found in the professional world. The brochure is a form of professional business and media writing. We also met the course outcome of creating professional documents that use plain English. This is because we had to use clear, concise, and grammatically correct language to properly promote our product. Due to the very nature of this assignment being a group project, we met the course outcome of participating productively in collaborative products. We all communicated clearly and effectively to do a good job. Another course outcome we met regards creating a professional document that uses design-standard formats, layouts, and graphics. This was accomplished due to the document being a brochure and thus requiring these features. We used graphics we gathered and edited to illustrate our product and promote it.
