Jungle Edge Biodiversity Action Proposal
by Eric Gonzalez-Payne

Everything the student has collected across years, assembled into one argument.
This is a synthesis task and it is the hardest kind of writing in the collection. Multiple data sets, collected under different conditions, some of them contradictory, brought into a single coherent case that does not overstate what the data shows.
The page has the synthesis frame, a data inventory, an argument structure and a limitations section. The limitations section is required and is where the best students distinguish themselves, because acknowledging what your own data cannot support is the mark of someone who understands it.
