Class Project

You are studying the tourist industry within your scheme of work for trinity term 2021. You were asked to create a newsletter for the tourist board as part of your community service requirements. This newsletter will be used to inform visitors and potential visitors why tourism is a sustainable form of development for the island. This newsletter will be handed out to visitors as they arrive at the various ports of entry within the country. Follow the guidelines below to complete your project. Be creative!

Instructions:

1. Reset your documents margins to .7 left, right, top, and bottom.

2. Single space the body of the newsletter with double spacing after each individual “article.”

3. Create a header/banner for the BVI Tourist Board newsletter. The header/banner should display across the entire top of the page. The header/banner should include the name of the newsletter, the name of the organization, the date of publication, and the volume/issue number. Of course, this will be volume 1/issue 1. Include any additional information you feel is important. Insert a continuous section break after the header/banner. (Hit enter to move beneath the header/banner. Click on Insert; Break; Continuous Section Break; and OK.).

4. Format your one-page newsletter in two balanced columns of equal width with spacing between columns set at .5” (default). Click on Format; Columns; Two; and OK.

5. Article text should be no smaller than 12 point and no larger than 14 point. Be careful to select “article” font that is easy to read.

6. All “article” titles should be consistent in font style, size, and type but they can be different from the article text size, style, and type. For example: Comic Sans; bold; 14 point.

REMEMBER: THIS CLASS PROJECT ARTICLE IS ONLY ONE ELEMENT OF THE NEWSLETTER!!!!
