POSTER

READ THIS POSTER SCENARIO: Your friend earned a C- or 70% on a poster she created. The feedback stated, “a poster is not a letter. Your poster looks like you nearly cut and pasted a letter onto a word document, added some color, and a few banners, and decide you’d created a poster.” You feel bad for your good friend; generally, she does good work, so you decided to take a look. Open the attachment to view the “poster.” Unfortunately, you agree with the grade and analysis. Your friend is correct: no date or signature was included; no letter-like margins are there; it’s error-free and has a scan code on it. But you see problems.
