Plant Knowledge Public Poster Review

Find posters, leaflets, market signage and websites making plant claims. Review them against a standard.

Reviewing rather than producing is a useful change of position, and students are ruthless and usually fair. Most public material overclaims, and identifying exactly how is a transferable skill.

The page has the review rubric, a scoring frame and a rewrite requirement. Rewriting the worst example correctly is the final task, and it is harder than criticising it, which is a point the sheet makes explicitly and students discover anyway.
