TASK 1 : Making a Brochure
Your task for this webquest is to make a brochure about MILAZZO, enhanced by the most representative and suggestive photos of this place. You should make Milazzo an interesting destination, showing its:
- architectural beauties (monuments, churches, castle, etc.) evidence of the village’s long and eventful past;
- breathtaking views ( idyllic spot for a picnic, miles of golden sands, beautiful scenery, etc.)
- endless local variety: the old town,the hustle and bustle of the city centre and off the beaten track: an area of unspoilt countryside.
Process
STEP 1: Designing your Brochure
- Firstly, you need to know what a brochure is.
- Secondly, you have to decide:
What kind of brochure you need. (bifold, tri-fold, booklet, folders and inserts, flyers).
What colours you choose ( bright bold colours attract attention!!!).
- Thirdly, you have to decide:
How many parts is your brochure made up of ?(1. Background history 2. Hotels and Restaurants 3. Architectural beauties, etc.)
- Finally, you have to decide what software you need to make it.
STEP 2: Planning your Brochure
In groups of three, you will work together to make a brochure. Each group will then choose one of the following points and fill out the worksheets explaining how customers/tourists could be persuaded to visit Milazzo.
- Group 1: Useful numbers
- Group 2: Background History
- Group 3: Hotels/B&B,Restaurants in Milazzo.
- Group 4: Architectural Beauties ( Monuments, Castle, etc.)

Step 3:Printing your Brochure
Once each group has completed its assigned part using the links provided, the students work together to create a layout for the brochure, including all the points requested, and then………..
PRINT YOUR BROCHURE!!!!!!!
Step 4: Evaluation
Using the knowledge that you have gained during this activity, write down a conclusion explaining:
- your choices related to the content (for example why you have advised the tourists to visit a particular place, to stay in a certain hotel or to taste a special type of food);
- the main problems you had to cope with, in order to make your proposals attractive.
Task 2. Using your Brochure
Work in pairs and do a role play, pretending to be a travel agent and a customer. Using the brochure you have made, consider Milazzo as an enticing destination, including the following points:
- Booking hotels
- Organizing a daily trip to the castle
- Visiting churches and monuments
- Going off the beaten track
- Enjoying the invigorating sea air
- Having dinner in a typical local restaurant
