Week 4: Promote your favorite places! (Create a flip book through ISSUE)

Dear students, 

As we move on to week 4, it is time to decide your favorite places that you "want" to visit during the self planned 4-day-trip to London this summer. Yet, because we visit London as a group, you need to "promote" your favorite tourist attractions and "convince" your classmates that your favorite spots are worth visiting in such a short time.

Therefore, in order to promote your favorite spots, I would like you to describe the places in details by creating a flip book! Designing a flip book is very easy and eye-catching; most important of all, you could share and get a glimpse of many tourist attractions that your classmates create. 


The instructions: 


  1. Decide 4 places that you want to promote to your classmates
  2. Search the detailed information about the places you choose. If you have no idea where to start, the following websites might help you to find the information:
     (1) Learn about London

     3. Create a 6-page- powerpoint. (including a front 
      page, 4-page of tourist spots, and a source for 
      reference)
   4.  You could also Convert your PPT to PDF
   5.  Go to Issue
