O.T. PART IV

Propaganda Brochure

*Create a brochure or pamphlet that encourages settlers to come out west on the Oregon Trail (Your destination must match the location you chose for your final destination on the trail – Oregon or California.)

**Use Propaganda Techniques to sell people on the idea of heading out West:

 BANDWAGON

 PLAIN FOLKS

 CARD STACKING

 NAME-CALLING

 GLITTERING GENERALITIES

 TESTIMONIAL

 SNOB APPEAL

 TRANSFERENCE

(Mrs. Doughty will go over these with you before the brochure is due.)

*Your brochure should describe the advantages to life out West. Pay attention to historical accuracy – think of things that people in the mid-1800s said to encourage emigrants to make the arduous journey to this new, uncharted territory.

*Your group will use Microsoft Publisher to create the final draft of your brochure. Your brochure will be made with the wizard program, and should include:


 A title

 Catchy slogan

 Facts

 Quotes

 Graphics and/or maps


*You must cite the references you used (the websites, etc.) on the back page of your brochure… and don’t forget to include your group members’ names.*
