Using the creation of a travel brochure as content, in this course students work both in collaborative groups as well as independently while using technology to research, plan, design, develop and create an informative and persuasive publication.  Students will explore the role technology plays in the decision making process of real life situations.

It is never too soon for students to start thinking about careers and higher education.  For this project students will use the Web to explore different careers based upon their interests.
