Part 2 of the Module 2 assignment instructs you to share your flyer or pamphlet with a group or individual (in person or virtual is okay) and then provide a written summary of the experience. This should include the response of your audience, and your impression of the experience. Discuss your audiences response…do you feel it went well, did they offer any recommendations, did they ask questions? Be sure to include this written summary when submitting your flyer or pamphlet.  Please read the directions thoroughly and include all the required elements in both the chosen media and written summary.

As for the required references, 3 scholarly references are required to support the material in the flyer/pamphlet. These should be cited and referenced on the actual document. The directions also state to “provide a minimum of two community resources and/or national resources.” These should be included within your flyer/pamphlet, for example if your topic is HIV, include 2 local and/or national resources where someone can find additional information or assistance.
