A one-pager is a ONE PAGE document that supplies an overview of a business, product, service, concept, task, reading, etc. A strong one-pager is concise, well organized, and provides enough information for the reader to understand the topic. They are common in marketing, politics, advocacy, and education. For this assignment, you will create a one-pager about a lab skill or equipment we are using in class. Think of this one-pager as a beginner’s how-to guide.
Then design your one-pager using Word.
The one-pager must be ONE PAGE (letter size; 8.5” x 11”).
It must include:
- Title: Skill or equipment being presented
- Picture or diagram of equipment needed (What does the equipment look like?)
- Level of precision if applicable (What significant figures do you need to record?)
- How to carry out the skill or use the equipment (How do you do it?)
- Important safety considerations
- Applications outside of the lab activity presented (Where would you use this skill?)
- At least 2 sources of error (What could go wrong?)
- At least 1 tip or thing to look out for when carrying out this skill
Some comments:
- Make your one pager professional and visually appealing. We are looking for college level work.
- Use color and images to support your overview.
- All images must be legally free to use (i.e. labeled free to use, public domain, royalty free).
- Remember to give attribution where required.
- DO NOT cut-and-paste from websites or published materials. This is a violation of the honor policy.
- Avoid lengthy paragraphs. Use a bulleted/numbered list when possible.
- Keep in mind that these are guides to someone who is new to the lab.
- Remember to cite outside sources that you have used for this assignment. We will be using SafeAssign for turning in the assignment which checks for originality of your work.
- All work should be submitted as a PDF.
