Voice- Authentic? Tone consistent?

Scope, length, flow- Economic? Length appropriate? Anything extraneous?























Media- Media support story, not vice versa? Explain media choices? Media literacy moments? Technique- Media grammar? Well-mixed? Squinting? Confusion? Assessable artifacts- Writing? Planning docs? Story map? Board? Copyright? Citations?




Impacts on educational leadership?

- most concerns are concerns about quality…

- quality is something look backwards to find…

- forward there’s no certainty…

Don’t rule by concern…


- concerns are negatively stated goals…

- concerns only define swerves…goals you can aim for…


- concerns are negatively stated goals…

- concerns only define swerves…goals you can aim for…

- so, turn concerns into goals…
