BEYOND SCALE
The Signal
ASSIGNMENT SCAN
Companion to Sample 02
Practice the threshold

Notice without rushing to conclude.

Choose one development you encountered this week. The exercise is not to make it important. It is to decide what the evidence permits you to say.

01 Observed

State what changed without motive, prediction, or impact language.

02 Inferred

What meaning are you adding? What would have to be true for that interpretation to hold?

03 Threshold

What does the evidence justify now?

Act
The consequence is material and sufficiently supported.
Monitor
The change may matter, but corroboration is still needed.
Set aside
The evidence is weak, repetitive, or not relevant to your environment.
Prompt for the week

What did I notice that deserves monitoring but not yet a conclusion?
