Visualising Information for Advocacy is a book about how advocates and activists use visual elements in their campaigns. This 170-page guide features over 60 case studies from around the world to provide an introduction to understanding visual information and a framework for using images for influence.
This is one of the reasons I like @ethanz's work so much - he focuses not only on telling a story, but also the path to action after that story is heard. It would be neat to, in the theme Ingleton suggests, have links to projects the parents and schools are working on to help their (or other) school(s). Similarly, a place to discuss (and hopefully move to action on) the issues with metrics, testing methods, etc would be a way to encourage interaction and improvement of the school system.
