Internet Safety & Awareness Brochure

The Internet can be a wonderful resource for researching information, communicating with friends, shopping for hard to find items, and for simple entertainment.  It can also be a dangerous world for children and adults, who are not prepared for the dangers that await.

Your local City Council has chosen you, based on your knowledge of Internet Safety & Awareness and your creativity with Digital Media, to create an Informational Brochure to spread Internet Safety& Awareness information and prevention tips with the citizens of your Community. 

Do you have what it takes to help inform your classmates and local community to stay safe on the internet?  Can you create a brochure that is easy to pick up, inform, educate and even entertain?
