New Perspectives Word 2019 | Module 1: SAM Project 1a Cress Insurance Company

As a member of the Human Resources Department at Cress Insurance Company, you are creating a flyer to promote the company's health and wellness classes. Begin by changing the orientation to Portrait so the page is longer than it is wide. Change the document margins to Narrow. Format the heading paragraph "Health and Wellness at Cress Insurance" as follows to make it stand out: Apply the text effect Fill: Black, Text color 1; Shadow (1st column, 1st row in the Text Effects and Typography Gallery) to the heading.

Shade the heading using the Aqua, Accent 4, Lighter 60% (8th column, 3rd row in the Theme Colors Palette) shading color. In the paragraph beginning "Cress Insurance offers…", delete the unnecessary sentence "All you need to do is sign up for one or more classes that interest you." Apply the Simple Frame, Black picture style to the picture of healthy foods so it coordinates with the title of the flyer. To call attention to the heading paragraph "Five Steps to a Heart-Healthy Diet", format the paragraph as follows: Left-align the paragraph. Change the font to Corbel (Headings). Change the font size to 16 point. Change the font color to Aqua, Accent 4 (8th column, 1st row in the Theme Colors Palette). Use the Format Painter to apply the same formatting to the paragraphs "Nutrition for Peak Performance" and "Fitness Challenge" to maintain consistency in the document. Bold the text "Tuesdays at noon" after the "Five Steps to a Heart-Healthy Diet" heading to use the same formatting as in the other days and times. Format the paragraphs describing the "Five Steps to a Heart-Healthy Diet" class as follows: Apply bullets to the three paragraphs beginning "Improve your heart…" and ending "…weekly grocery lists." Increase the indent of the second and third bulleted paragraphs ("Take five easy-to-follow…weekly grocery lists.")

At the end of the paragraph "For more information on upcoming classes, contact", type [email protected] and then press SPACEBAR to convert the text into a hyperlink. Separate the top and bottom parts of the flyer as follows: Add a Top Border to the paragraph "For more information… [email protected]". Change the color of the border to Aqua, Accent 4 (8th column, 1st row in the Theme Colors Palette). Change the height of the weights and athletic shoes picture to 1" to balance the page. Remove the hyperlink from the text "Cress Health and Wellness Programs" below the picture to format the heading as regular text. Italicize the text "Cell (" in the second-to-last paragraph to set it apart from surrounding text. Delete the last paragraph in the document, including the picture of the Cress logo, to make sure the flyer content fits on one page. Check the Spelling & Grammar in the document to identify and correct any spelling errors. Your document should look like the Final Figure on the following pages. Save your changes, close the document, and then exit Word. Follow the directions on the SAM website to submit your completed project.

Creating an effective flyer to promote workplace health and wellness programs requires attention to design, content, and formatting. As an HR professional at Cress Insurance Company, the goal is to produce a visually appealing, informative, and well-organized flyer that encourages employees to participate in health and fitness classes. This process involves strategic use of Microsoft Word features such as page orientation, margins, text effects, shading, borders, and formatting tools to enhance readability and visual impact.

The first step is to set the page orientation to Portrait, which emphasizes a vertical layout suitable for flyers. Narrowing the margins maximizes space and creates a cleaner look, allowing more content to fit on a single page. The flyer’s header, "Health and Wellness at Cress Insurance," must be formatted to stand out. Applying a text fill of Black, along with a shadow from the Text Effects and Typography Gallery, adds depth and emphasis to the headline. Shading the heading with Aqua, Accent 4, Lighter 60%, aligns with the overall theme and draws attention to the title.

In the body content, the paragraph starting with "Cress Insurance offers…" needs a specific sentence removed to streamline the message. The picture of healthy foods should be styled with the Simple Frame, Black picture style to match the flyer’s aesthetic. The section titled "Five Steps to a Heart-Healthy Diet" requires consistency in formatting: left-aligned, in Corbel font (Headings), 16-point size, and in the theme color Aqua, Accent 4. Highlighting "Tuesdays at noon" boldly helps emphasize scheduling details, maintaining uniformity with other class times.

Using the Format Painter tool, identical formatting is applied to subsequent sections like "Nutrition for Peak Performance" and "Fitness Challenge" for consistency. Bulleted lists are used to clearly present steps within the "Five Steps" section, with increased indentation for sub-points to establish hierarchy. Hyperlinks are inserted after the contact information, making it interactive and accessible for users seeking further details.

The flyer is divided visually by adding a Top Border to the contact paragraph, styled with the same Aqua, Accent 4 color to maintain cohesion. Provided images are resized to ensure visual balance, such as adjusting the weights and athletic shoes picture to 1 inch in height. The hyperlink on "Cress Health and Wellness Programs" is removed to revert the text to regular formatting, and specific text, like "Cell (" in the paragraph, is italicized to differentiate it from surrounding content.

Finally, unnecessary content, including the Cress logo, is deleted to keep the flyer concise and content-rich within a single page. A thorough spelling and grammar check ensures professionalism. The completed document should mirror the final example provided, reflecting a polished, professional promotional flyer ready for submission.
