World War II Bulletin


This bulletin board can be found on the second floor of McKay Education Building. This board displays a timeline of the events that happened during World War II. One of the advantages of this board is that it is huge. The person who designed this board had plenty of space to work with. I think that this boards title is a great size, it is big enough for everyone to see is, but instead of all uppercase letters it ishould be in mixed case. I also like that the title is center in the middle of the board. I did not have to look around every where to find out what the bulletin board was about. The creator did an excellent job with not making the board too colorful, and the colors actually work together, but I do not think that it is a very attractive color scheme. If the creator wanted to stick with the color blue, I think that he/ she should have used green or even a darker blue for the title. I also like the idea that there is a boarder around this bullentin board. The border helped draw me into the center of the board where all the information is. I think this board has a great idea and concept, but I also think that there is a little more than enough information on the board. Although most of the objects on the board are pictures, I still think that it is a great amount of information. I am not sure if someone would actually stop to took at everything on this bulletin board. I also think that since the board was exceptionally large, there was more room for more creativity as far a where everything on the board was placed. There is also text on the bulletin board that talks about some of the pictures. I think that the text in the descriptions of the pictures should have been in a larger font so it would be easier to read.
