15.2 THEPLANNING OF PUBLIC SIGNS
Like notices posted in public places,most public signs follow a direct organization plan.The steps in organizing a direct-plan public signs are:identifying the public sphere where the public sign is to be posted,specifying the group of people to be governed by the public sign,formulating the response required of the target group of people or the benefit promised for those people,and finally conveying the message with the help of suitable figures or symbols if necessary.(https://www.daowen.com)
Occasionally,some public signs regulating improper public behaviors may involve the taboos of a given culture.The direct organization approach may then constitute a part of indecent public life and may therefore prove unacceptable.In this case,an indirect organization plan may be adopted.
