Possible PSA Topics • Texting and driving • Drinking and driving • Anti-bullying • School nutrition • Staying Fit (Fight Obesity) • Other teacher approved topic
Explanation of how work will be completed • Each member will be responsible for working on this project! • Determine your PSA topic • Determine PSA: • Purpose-(increase awareness, public to take action, etc.) • Target Audience-(K-12 students, high school students, middle-high school students, general public, etc.) • Techniques/Appeals you want to include- (Ethos, Logos, Pathos, Emotional appeal, Testimonial, Bandwagon, etc.) • Begin Research • All members will research their group’s chosen topic. • Plan your PSA • Using the storyboard graphic organizer- member #1 will write in box 1. Pass the graphic organizer to member #2 to write in box #2 and so forth. • Create PSA • Once you have completed the graphic organizer, create your PSA using Power Point. You may add pictures, charts, video, music, etc. • After your PSA is complete, using the same method as you did to complete your storyboard, your group should come up with a justification about your PSA. The justification should be a paragraph about why the content of your PSA is important, how is it relevant, and how you used the persuasive appeals.
