Social media posts (inspirational quotes) checklist

Please use this as a guide to help you once a post is done:

  • Do you have a Trello card for the post?
  • Is the url of the post on the Trello card? (If you change the post title, the url will change. Please change it on Trello, too, if you do.)
  • Is the title of the post short and sweet? (This will be the url, so it can't be too long.)
  • Are you sure the quote is attributed to the correct person? 
  • Do you have an image & the correct attribution for the image?
  • Do you have the quote in bold on top? (So people can copy & paste it.) 
  • Does the post have a Language Point? Remember to focus on one language point! 
  • Did you highlight any new words, phrases or language points? 
  • Is the post itself short and sweet? This post is a good guideline for length.
  • Is the language easy to read? Are you introducing new language other than the idiom itself? (If so, can you change it to something simpler?)

  • Did you put in an example in a text box? (Bear in mind that every so often, you'll have something that you can't do this with.) 

  • Do you have the tag "Inspirational quotes" on? (We need this to differentiate these posts from other one-minute lesson posts.) 
  • Is there a "Note" in the "Note" section for the social media person to write a comment from? (For inspirational quotes, it's good to give a teaser of the language point so readers will be motivated to click to the link.)
  • Is there anything in the post you can link to another TEF blog, social media post, lesson, or course? (If so, please talk to Aki H and work with her.)
