  2. Write a brief essay in which you explain the ads that you would develop or actually create the ads with graphics, etc. Then, include a description of the two routes, why each ad would appeal to a person in a particular route, and what things determine if a person will use the peripheral or central route.
  3. Write your essay in a word processing program and save the essay to your computer as a .docx file. This is the format we will use for most essays in this course.
