Below are sample questions representative of the exercises included on this worksheet and related 6.40 Cite Evidence skill assessments:
Canyon Plains Farm Co-op assembled several pieces of information about evaluating evidence in a public health bulletin into one summary. The brief compared two approaches, labeled Group 1 and Group 2, and kept the measurement method the same. For Group 1, sick days changed from 202 to 134. For Group 2, sick days changed from 135 to 102. The change was larger for Group 1 (68 units) than for Group 2 (33 units). A satisfaction survey showed mixed opinions across participants. The brief noted that correlation does not always prove cause, so readers should focus on what was actually measured. Strong evidence is the data point that connects directly to the analysis, not the detail that only sounds related.
Meadow Landing City Lab assembled several pieces of information about choosing evidence in a multi-source article summary into one summary. To reduce bias, the writers compared Option A with Option B and checked results across the same time window. For Option A, cost changed from $1658 to $1053. For Option B, cost changed from $1668 to $1201. The change was larger for Option A ($605) than for Option B ($467). The budget line for the project stayed nearly the same. The writers also pointed out that a small sample can make results look bigger or smaller than they really are. Strong evidence is the data point that connects directly to the analysis, not the detail that only sounds related.
A multi-source brief from Brighton Creek Community Center examined interpreting results from a materials strength test using numbers from more than one dataset. The summary used the same definition of the measure for Trial X and Trial Y so the results could be compared. For Trial X, breaking force changed from 1025 newtons to 1402 newtons. For Trial Y, breaking force changed from 877 newtons to 1107 newtons. The change was larger for Trial X (377 newtons) than for Trial Y (230 newtons). A satisfaction survey showed mixed opinions across participants. The writers also pointed out that a small sample can make results look bigger or smaller than they really are. Strong evidence is the data point that connects directly to the analysis, not the detail that only sounds related.
