Create and submit an outline of your brochure. After you submit the outline, I will read through it and give you suggestions for how to improve it. If your outline is as complete as possible, you will get more meaningful feedback from me. (See the example at the bottom of this assignment to see what your completed outline should contain). Follow the format below:
Front (this would be the inside of a paper brochure when unfolded)
Panel 1: Topic #2 and visual element with caption (image, graph, or data table)
Panel 2: Topic #3 and visual element with caption (image, graph, or data table)
Panel 3: Topic #4 and visual element with caption (image, graph, or data table)
Back
Panel 1: Topic #1 and visual element with caption (image, graph, or data table)
Panel 2: (this would be the back of a paper brochure when folded) Image, photo or map and List of Sources
Panel 3: (this would be the very front of a paper brochure when folded) Title and introduction, plus image
Submit this outline to this assignment using the Text Entry feature. You do not need to insert your images (although you are welcome to do so, if you like). You will be graded on the organization and completeness of your outline (10 points)
For Example:
This example is based on the example brochure attached to the bottom of this page.

Panel 1:
The epicenter?
The COVID-19 outbreak began in Wuhan City, which is the capital city of Hubei province, China.This large city has a population of 11 million. 15,826 of the confirmed cases are from Wuhan city alone.
Graph of daily infected cases outside of China (Caption: This figure from Cassandra Capital shows the infection spread outside of mainland china. As of Feb. 28th, 2020 the WHO reports 83,652 confirmed cases globally and 2,858 deaths.)
Panel 2:
Zoonotic?
Pathogens that are transmitted between animals and humans are called zoonotic. It has been determined that SARS jumped from civet cats to humans, for example. COVID-19 appears to be zoonotic with its likely origin at “a wet animal market” in China.
