Alexander Russo · Alexander Russo's The Grade

There's no Friday newsletter again this week, but the Secret Bonus Section includes a new column, a new interview, and more. Paid subscribers get immediate access!

Sources, scoops, & soaring audience

In this new interview, WAMU reporter Jenny Abamu details how her TikTok channel has evolved over the past year since she began, and all the ways it has helped her reporting.

Why edtech opt-outs won’t work

In this new paid subscriber-only column, a longtime educator who now substitute teaches explains why edtech opt-outs (in which parents determine whether their kids are exposed to screens and learning software) won’t work — a concern education journalists should know about.

Here’s last week’s paid Secret Bonus Section, ICYMI: Invisible school reform, district-aided micro-schools, & the missing interview question.

Thanks for being a paid subscriber!
