This is the Teen Court Law Process flow chart intended for jury members, judges, and teenagers on trial to use. It was part of a bigger article about Teen Court. This is a very informative flowchart, but there is not much style to it. It simply states the rules and how the court works but doesn't do much to do the audience's attention. However, it isn't for a matter that should be taken lightly so in this case in might actually work. Because there isn't much picture and imagery and has simple colors and a simple font, it makes it seem more important. And in something the adults might scoff at, like Teen Court, this is very important because they want to be taken seriously. The wording and the diction of this flowchart is also very serious, somber, and no slang or regular language. It uses words such as "respondent" and "qualifying" and "referred" to create a sense of authority and seriousness. This is clearly supposed to be taken seriously by the audience, and since the audience might be mostly teenagers, the language and the imagery provokes the serious tones. The purpose of the teen court flowchart was to inform people about the workings of teen court, not to pull people in, or entertain them in any way. And I think it was very effective in doing this because of the simplistic design and font, and because of the diction throughout the piece.
