Goal for staff: Make each day your masterpiece. You have to apply yourself each day to becoming a little better. By applying yourself to the task of becoming a little better each and every day over a period of time, you will become a lot better. Only then will you be able to approach being the best you can be.

Goal for editors & advisor: Define success for those under your leadership as total commitment and effort to the team's welfare. Then show it yourself with your own effort and performance. Most of those you lead will do the same. Those who don't should be encouraged to look for a new team. — John Wooden

Day 18: AP and you!


  • Check in with teams: everyone is working on a draft right now! How are graphics coming along?
  • Review of COD, Voter Registration & Election Day events
  • AP Style intro: Review of MA style sheet and then general AP
  • AP style work with a partner
  • Review of style work
COD coverage schedule
Each session needs:
1. A reporter working the iPad for video
2. A reporter (or two or three) writing a 350-500 word article (min of three sources). Regardless of number of reporters, there's still only one article filed.

Articles are to be filed the day of the session. Each article needs a complimentary graphic. Start thinking about that now.
