The document provides instructions for students in a 1st year Biology and Geology class to prepare a scientific article summarizing a newspaper or magazine article related to course content from the first evaluation period. Students must justify their choice of article, provide a summary and theoretical basis relating it to course concepts, and may include images, diagrams, texts or video links. Rigorous and critical selection of information will be valued positively, while lack of specificity, spelling errors and copy-pasted works will be valued negatively.
