Below are sample questions representative of the exercises included on this worksheet and related 7.67 Media Claims vs. Evidence skill assessments:

Problem 1Difficulty: Mastery
A road-safety PSA poster shows a cracked windshield, the slogan "Speed steals futures," and a box reading, "In county crash reports from 2025, speeding was a factor in 37% of teen injury crashes." A small disclaimer states, "Weather and distraction also contribute to crashes." Which answer best analyzes the poster?
AThe cracked windshield is the evidence, and the statistic is loaded language.
BThe disclaimer proves speed is never a factor.
CThe poster avoids persuasion and only lists neutral facts.
DThe slogan and image create emotion, the 37% statistic is evidence, and the disclaimer keeps the claim from sounding too absolute.
Solution & Explanation:The poster combines emotional appeal with factual support. The disclaimer adds context by showing speeding is one important factor, not the only cause.
Problem 2Difficulty: Mastery
Ad text: "Our tutoring center raises grades." Fine print says, "Average score gain: 6 points." What missing detail most weakens the evidence?
AThe tutor shirts' color.
BWhether the office has plants.
CThe time period and amount of tutoring behind the 6-point gain.
DWhich day of the week the ad was printed.
Solution & Explanation:Without a time frame and tutoring conditions, viewers cannot tell whether a 6-point gain is meaningful or how it was achieved.
Problem 3Difficulty: Mastery
Current ad claim: "The new bike lane makes school routes safer." Which visual addition would most improve the ad's evidence?
AA brighter background with fireworks.
BA graph comparing bike crashes or near-miss reports before and after the lane was added.
CA cartoon mascot on a bicycle.
DA huge slogan in shiny letters.
Solution & Explanation:A before-and-after safety graph would add relevant evidence. The other visuals might attract attention but would not prove the claim.
