New! Election Connection: An Election Campaign Design Simulation


©2010
Softcover • 8.5 X 11
72 pp. Grades 7+
Based on the instructional practices of Delda L. Hagin

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.

Features:

  • Can be used with any DTP software including, InDesign, MS Publisher, Quark, and even MS Word.

  • Ideal for desktop publishing, marketing, and even social studies courses.

  • From designing a “vote button,” to creating lawn signs, students get hands-on practice in using and applying desktop publishing and marketing skills in a political election campaign.

  • Non-consumable workbooks (students do not need to write in the workbook to complete the simulation).

  • Fully customizable (complete all the projects or select those that meet your course objectives).

  • Completion Time: 16 - 20 hours

Students use creativity, design, and page layout skills to create the following for their selected candidate:

  • Campaign Logo
  • Business Card
  • Bumper Sticker
  • Lawn Sign
  • Vote Button
  • Campaign Banner
  • Fundraiser Tent Card
  • Newsletter
  • Letterhead
  • Campaign Presentation
