Genre

My genre is fliers. Usually fliers are posted on bulletin boards, or passed out in heavily trafficked areas, as to get the most people as possible to see them. They usually have a catchy word or phrase in big type as to grab your attention, and pull you into reading the rest. Usually organizations use this genre to spread information about different things such as upcoming events. Within this genre I feel that I have limited freedom. With fliers they can only be posted or handed out so people can choose not to read or take them. My sources for this information were mostly my personal knowledge of fliers.

My project idea is to bring more fans to the soccer games. This year both the football and soccer teams are having mediocre seasons, yet the football stands are full for every game. I plan to attract more fans to the games by posting flyers for the games, and creating incentive for students to attend games, such as give-a-ways, which the team already does for some games.

I think this week in class I improved upon almost all of my work in the previous weeks, I tried to participate more in class and group discussions, and I kept up with all of my reading and writing assignments. I still have to work on keeping up with my blog which I continue to have trouble with. I will continue to try and improve upon this over the next few weeks.
