Stories for Advocacy
Stories for Advocacy is a new addition to the Advocacy Toolkit.
Complementing Toolkit articles, research reports, and essays that speak
to the listener's rational side, stories
for advocacy resonate in different, more evocative ways.
Stories Are a Springboard for Action
When a story works well, listeners mentally race ahead to imagine the
implications. They see how change is possible, and how this idea
connects to them.

about elements of an effective story.
Collectively, these advocacy stories from around the country paint a
picture of why technology matters in education, in a wide range of
settings. The stories demonstrate how technology transforms the learning
experience-allowing us to do something better or accomplish what we
could not do otherwise, making a difference for one student, a class, a
teacher team, a school, a district, or a community.
