In Election Connection, your
students gain real-world design and marketing skills in the
political campaign process. Election Connection creates a scenario
where students take on the role of a marketing and design campaign
manager for a candidate (of their choice) running for office.
Whether it be for a classmate running for a school office, or a
local candidate running for town council, your students will develop
the campaign materials used to promote their candidate. |
|
Throughout the simulation,
students are guided step-by-step in creating an assortment
of documents for their political candidate’s campaign.
Creativity, design, marketing, and page layout skills are
challenged as students receive hands-on experience in
applying desktop publishing skills to a real-world political
campaign. |
