Reflection (Week 5)

          Moving on to Assignment 6a and 6b this week, we were required to create a brochure using Microsoft Publisher (Assignment 6a) and a booklet using Microsoft Word (Assignment 6b).

          In order to create a brochure using MS Publisher, go to Publisher > Brochure > Template Design > Create. A brochure outline was shown for further editing. We inserted pictures which we created earlier on using Paint. At the same time, we also added in suitable text to our brochure. Pictures and texts were organised in a desired presentable manner. Eventually, we have problems editing pictures using photoshop, thus we chose to use paint instead. It really took time for us to explore and edit for our most desired pictures which were appropriate for our brochure. Our brochure concentrated on the idea to promote original software. Therefore, the content of our brochure was about a campaign organised to promote the use of original software in Malaysia. To view our brochure, please click here.

          The next task was to create a booklet using book fold in MS Word. Through this particular task, we found out that it was easier to insert and edit the location of pictures by using text boxes. Like creating brochure, we added in pictures and texts to design our booklet. Our booklet contained 9 pages altogether. It was basically a summary of our literature review in Assignment 4 related to original licensed software and pirated software. We did not have much trouble upon completing our booklet as we were used to the features in MS Word. Our booklet looks like this.
