I liked this assignment because it helped me see the importance not only of content in the paper, but in the presentation. If something is not presented professionally, the look of it destroys any progress the content of the paper has made. There is a judgment made before the reader even looks at the text. It can add a lot to the text in terms of being credible, or it can take a lot away. This was a valuable lesson learned by this assignment. It was also one of the easier assignments we have done, more because our team worked really well together. We all had our roles to fill and they were relatively small. But with everyone doing their part, the assignment was done fairly quickly. It was good to learn more about working in a group. I hadn't done too many group projects before. It will be good to see what the presentations are like. I think the most helpful portion of this project was looking at other, example assignments and seeing what was effective. It was good to see patterns of how colors and pictures were used, to learn from both the good ones and from the ones that were not as effective. The more simple, with good pictures, with simple colors, all aligned, seemed to draw attention to the topic but didn't distract the reader by how ridiculous it looked. The presentation, even in the smallest details, plays such a big role in the persuasive ability of the text.
