#2 Module : Pick One Audience and Intent

🎯 Module 2: Pick One Audience and Intent

🌟 Why this matters

A story only works if it speaks to the right people. Students, faculty, and staff all care about different things. If you don’t define your audience and intent, your story risks being too vague.

📝 Step-by-step exercise

1. Choose your audience

   • Students: They want clarity, confidence, and relevance to their lives.
   • Faculty/Staff: They want outcomes, reproducibility, and impact.

2. Define your intent

   • What do you want them to do after hearing your story?
   • Examples:
     • Students: “By the end, I want them to try this lab method.”
     • Faculty: “By the end, I want them to adopt this rubric.”

3. Write your intent line

   • Fill in the blank:
     “By the end, I want [audience] to [action].”

4. Test it with a peer

   • Share your intent line. Ask: “Does this sound clear and motivating to you?”
