ENGAGE

PROJECT INTRO

1. What are you engaging on/what do you already know?
2. Why are you engaging?
3. How should the community interact?
4. (Why should they care?)

CONTENT GUIDELINES

1. Shorter/digestible/chunked is better
2. Keep it at an 8th grade reading level (Hemingway editor or Readable)
3. Keep it free from jargon/technical language
4. Use rich media if possible

DON'T FORGET ACCESSIBILITY

1. Add the alternative text for your images (and graphics) for people who are blind or visually impaired.
2. Use the built-in headers in the paragraph format button to change text sizes.
3. Do you have subtitles and/or closed captioning on videos for people who are deaf or hearing impaired (or may struggle with language)? (Youtube does this for you.)

A REMINDER ABOUT THE TOOLS

1. You can add multiple instances of the forum, ideas, places, quick poll, and survey tools.
2. Give a clear question or prompt. (We have a great guide to help!)
3. If you have ground rules or expectations, communicate them.
4. Registration is required (or not) at the tool level.
5. Always check the tool settings!
6. Test your tools in draft mode. Once you publish the tool, you will not be able to delete it from the project IF you have gathered ANY input. (You can unpublish it, though.)
