=Lesson 2= =Student Handout 2.3—Time Tour Brochure Title Page Instructions= ==Your group is nearly ready to make a big sales pitch with your Afroeurasia Travel Brochure. Each of you has an eye-catching page on your own topic to grab the attention of potential tourists. But if you gave the customer all four of your pages as they are, they would have to read all of them before they had a real sense of what they could expect on the Time Tour as a whole. Back before the invention of the time machines, when you were a professional historian, you==

=Process=
 * 1) ==Study the Sample Brochure Title Page in your group in order to understand what is expectedof you. Your group will collaborate on making the page. Each individual will be responsible for providing information and ideas about her or his own topic. The group will worktogether to develop a title and choose a picture.==
 * 2) ==Do not immediately begin writing your final product. Look at your Topic (1a.) and TopicSubheading (1b.) from the brochure page you created. You should have a clear, catchyphrase which quickly gives the customer a sense of what they can expect to see on theirAfroeurasia Time Tour in your area of expertise—geography, politics, religion, or economy. If you do not have a phrase, by all means get one now. If you do, you may be able simplyto use the text you have in your brochure page Topic (1a.) in the portion on the Title Page for your topic’s phrase (10a, 11a, 12a, or 13a, depending on your topic). You may need to adapt or condense your topic (1a.) text to one short, eye-catching phrase that sums up your topic, depending on how you worded it in your brochure page.==
 * 3) ==Next, talk with your group to develop a catchy Brochure Title which, in a few words, gives the reader a sense of what their experience on the Tour will be like. Do not aim for details.The customer can get those on the brochure pages. Go for an emotional appeal, or tickle the customer’s funny bone. Whatever you do, make sure that your Title really does reflect what is in your brochure. Remember—false advertising can ruin a reputation==
 * 4) ==Once all the members of your group have their text for their phrases in order, read eachothers’ text. Now you need to develop your Brochure Subtitle (8b). Remember—this is the big sales pitch! You want your customer to read these few words and beg to buy one of yourTime Tours! Start with your subtitle. As a group, talk about the text in your group’s phrases.What can a customer expect to see and do on your tour? Answer that question by writing, asa group, a brief, enticing sentence or phrase. This will be your subtitle.==
 * 5) ==Draw or choose a picture (9a.) to supplement your text. Your picture might highlight aparticularly exciting part of your tour, or it might somehow give a sense of the whole tour.What counts is that it catches a customer’s attention and reflects in some way what theycan expect to find on the tour. As a group, write a brief picture caption (9b.) whichexplains the picture, and cite the picture’s source if necessary.==
 * 6) ==Now your group is ready to create its Title Page. As with your brochure page, place all your text and pictures on one piece of paper. Follow the layout on the Sample Brochure TitlePage or devise one of your own. What counts is that you include all the required text and pictures. Note: Do not forget to put the name of your Time Travel Agency on your TitlePage!==
 * 7) ==Last, assemble the entire brochure in order: Title Page, Geography, Politics, Religion, and Economy. Now you are ready to make sales!==
