1. 226 SLP HOMEWORK ASSIGNMENT
226 SLP HOMEWORK ASSIGNMENT226 SLP HOMEWORK ASSIGNMENTThroughout the
session, you have been going through the process of influencing policymakers by directly or
indirectly writing letters to them. For this assignment, you will develop a 30-second public
service announcement (PSA) for radio, television, or a website to further bring attention to
the issue you have been writing about. Your product, whichever option you choose, must
include a voice-over or recorded PSA. Therefore, you will need access to a microphone for
this assignment. The module’s required reading from the Community Tool Box covers how
to prepare PSAs and when to consider using them. Their examples of PSA scripts are very
useful and can give you ideas about how to approach the assignment.1. Identify the main
purpose and target audience of your PSA.2. Develop a 30-second prerecorded PSA (~ 60-
75 words) for a radio, a television, or a website. Make sure to submit both your script and
prerecorded PSA.3. Your PSA should include a “catchphrase” that makes your message
memorable. Below are examples of health campaign catchphrases.“Milk does a body
good.”“This is your brain on drugs. Any questions?”“I learned it by watching you.”“Friends
don’t let friends drive drunk.”Note: MyTLC Courses only supports the following media

CUSTOMIZED, PLAGIARISM-FREE PAPERSYou must proofread your paper. But do not
strictly rely on your computer’s spell-checker and grammar-checker; failure to do so
indicates a lack of effort on your part and you can expect your grade to suffer accordingly.
Papers with numerous misspelled words and grammatical mistakes will be penalized. Read
over your paper – in silence and then aloud – before handing it in and make corrections as
necessary. Often it is advantageous to have a friend proofread your paper for obvious
errors. Handwritten corrections are preferable to uncorrected mistakes.Use a standard 10
to 12 point (10 to 12 characters per inch) typeface. Smaller or compressed type and papers
with small margins or single-spacing are hard to read. It is better to let your essay run over
the recommended number of pages than to try to compress it into fewer pages.Likewise,
large type, large margins, large indentations, triple-spacing, increased leading (space
between lines), increased kerning (space between letters), and any other such attempts at
“padding” to increase the length of a paper are unacceptable, wasteful of trees, and will not
fool your professor.The paper must be neatly formatted, double-spaced with a one-inch
margin on the top, bottom, and sides of each page. When submitting hard copy, be sure to
2. use white paper and print out using dark ink. If it is hard to read your essay, it will also be
hard to follow your argument.
