A public service announcement (PSA) is like an advertisement that informs us about something important. The purpose of a PSA is to benefit the public by raising awareness about an issue or topic.

In this assignment, you will choose a single fiction story from the list below, analyze the story, and create a PSA flyer on a single theme from your analysis (see the example attached to the directions). You will not include the story title or author in the flyer. The flyer focuses only on the theme and adheres to the purpose of a PSA.

Your PSA flyer should:

  • Include a “hook” that grabs the viewer’s attention.
  • Use font and color choices wisely and purposefully. For example, bold font can emphasize key points
  • Be in Microsoft Word or PDF file format Acceptable file formats are .doc, .docx, .odt, or PDF only. Do not use a presentation program like PowerPoint.
