Teams review their newspaper articles, headlines, captions, and opinion pieces to see whether multiple perspectives are represented fairly across industries such as agriculture, technology, shipping, or tourism. Using printed drafts or shared Google Docs, students highlight where they cite maps, photos, data, interview notes, and source facts, then flag places where claims sound unsupported or one-sided. Teams revise article sections so the publication better reflects evidence and audience understanding.
