* STAFFING

*method of design

STRATEGIES

* Staffing strategies

1. Modular design is ideal for teamwork. A team of 3-4 students can be assigned to a spread. Select a team leader.

*method of design

* Staffing strategies

2. Students work together to plan and create the overall spread.

*method of design

* Staffing strategies

3. Students work individually to report, photograph, write and design individual modules.

*method of design

* MAKEOVER  MOD

For staffs wanting more content, let’s do a MOD makeover and

convert regular photo boxes into dynamic content modules!

Traditional design   *

faces photos feature story with quotes

Our traditional design features:

FACES

Is this enough coverage? *

*

Let’s convert the dominant module … *

* … into a photo collection featuring four photos.

To tell a more inclusive story, this single photo … *

… is now replaced with four photos with personal stories. *

To expand our storytelling even further, let’s turn this photo … *

… into a module featuring three photos accompanied by quotes. *

* To add three more faces and voices to the story …

… a single photo is now a dynamic question/answer feature. *

* To expand the story and include even more students …

… an infograph with survey results also incorporates photos. *

Let’s finish by taking this area occupied by two candid photos … *

* … and convert it into a module showcasing four related photos.

A MOD makeover greatly expands coverage and storytelling. *

44 Let’s do the math

faces + 18 photos + 13 survey participants + 150 storytelling quotes + 10 feature story with quotes
