"Drawing on evidence from three centuries, Popular Media and the American Revolution recounts the stories that newspapers, magazines, and television programs have told about the country’s founding – stories that merge fact with folklore, local pride with national unity, and political purpose with popular sentiment, and that over time have crystallized into public memory. Entertaining as well as illuminating, Janice Hume’s study ably affirms the central role of journalism in the construction of national mythology." - Carolyn Kitch, Professor of Journalism, Temple University
"Hume writes clearly and concisely. She chooses examples well and makes creative use of multiple sources...Overall...this book makes a positive contribution. It really takes little more than a visit to any community July 4th celebration to underline that her insights stand up well." - Carl Sessions Stepp, University of Maryland, in Journalism & Mass Communication Quarterly

Shaping Collective Memory

Popular Media and the American Revolution

"Strategic planning is the graveyard where promising ideas go to die. Put excellent ideas into a strategic planning framework and they will get starved of inspiring language, exhausted after endless meetings, and paralyzed by rigid frameworks and metrics. This book, however, is the antithesis of everything you assumed or imagined about strategic planning. Accessible, practical, and counterintuitive, it knocks traditional assumptions like SMART goals on the head and puts in their place a clear and simple alternative. Strategic planning, it turns out, is about actually doing something that matters, with the people you’ve got or are able to get, in a way that is feasible, and that makes perfect sense. If you want to bring strategic planning back from the dead and enliven your school’s improvement plans, this is the book for you."—Andy Hargreaves, Research Professor, Boston College
"In The Strategy Playbook for Educational Leaders, Stevenson and Weiner draw on their deep experience in schools and districts to clarify the purpose of educational planning (instructional improvement, not bureaucratic compliance) and explain how to do it (with others, learning-as-you-go, continuously assessing progress). They chart an ambitious and productive path for individual and organizational learning—one that is grounded in principle, guided by goals, and geared for action."—Susan Moore-Johnson, Jerome T. Murphy Research Professor in Education at the Harvard Graduate School of Education
"Most leaders know that strategy is important. After all, as Steve Case, co-founder of AOL, says, "a vision without the ability to execute is probably a hallucination." However, in education, books on strategy tend either to be so vague that they provide little actual guidance on how to achieve the desired goals, or are overly specific, providing recipes that may work in a few contexts but are largely useless in most others. This is why The Strategy Playbook for Educational Leaders is such a remarkable and useful book. Beginning with a powerful framework that focuses on equity, logic, capacity, and coherence, they describe a disciplined process for developing a strategic approach to school improvement; one that supports and guides—but does not dictate—what schools and districts should seek to do. The result is a resource that will be valuable to all administrators whatever their beliefs about the purposes of education, curriculum philosophy and pedagogy."—Dylan Wiliam, Emeritus professor of Educational Assessment at the UCL Institute of Education
