Peer Reviews- Done Individually
You will be reviewing an example scientific claims flyer.
This practice peer review will help prepare you for reviewing your actual peer's flyers, and it will help you understand how to put together a good flyer. Peer review is a huge part of scientific research, and by taking part in this process, you are practicing a skill you may use in your career. Even if you never peer review another project, taking part in peer review will help you improve your own writing and better understand what peer review means for scientific fields.
Flyer to review: choose 1
Download the flyer, or preview to read it on this canvas page.
Just choose 1 of these to review. Each of these flyer could improve in different ways. One or more flyer may be missing some requirements, not fully address the claim, not connect evidence to the claim with sufficient reasoning, have visual issues that make it hard to read or other issues. Your job is to tell this imaginary peer how to improve their flyer.
This assignment will also help you get an idea of what you want your flyer to look like, and what you'll need to do to get there.
