~ Drugs in Sport Assignment ~

Task:
Design a bi-fold brochure on the topic of Drugs in Sport. The brochure is intended to be distributed to sporting clubs warning players about the dangers of drug use in sport. It needs to be catchy and interesting enough for players to pick it up and read it.

Process:

  1. Decide on the type of sport you plan on targeting, eg football,athletics, archery, basketball, weightlifting etc
  2. Provide information on the types of drugs used, short term benefits and the dangers associated with use.
  3. Provide information on drug testing such as banned drugs, testing procedures etc
  4. You will need to complete some basic research to help in the planning and completion of this brochure.
  5. You are advised to use more than one source for your research so as to gain a better understanding of your topic.
  6. You should document all sources of information that you used by compiling a bibliography. A Bibliography Template and a Webliography Template (for Internet resources) can be downloaded off the Intranet.
  7. Before attempting the final brochure, spend some time planning it by constructing a rough copy which outlines where the drawing/pictures/text/graphs/tables will go.
  8. Come up with a catchy slogan for your information brochure: it should be creative and describe the content of your brochure.
  9. The information should be presented in dot point form rather than in margin to margin test.
  10. The brochure is to be word processed using a desktop publishing program to give it a professional finish.
