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 2: What makes news?

Review news article --> with a partner, share your news article. Why is your article newsworthy? What did you learn? How many sources were there?

1. What makes news news? A quick video. What elements go into making something news?

2. Short powerpoint.

3. Use news websites to find examples of each news value term. You can work in partners. Share out as class.

4. What would be some ideas for news stories on campus?

----------

Sarah, Henry, Lije --> go through the fall semester and the last two years. What have been the top stories reported? What articles stood out and why? Any graphics that can be used as models of excellence? What topics might we want to look at?
