Checking the source of career information
Grades 6–8 · Ready-made original
Learning goal
Choose a source that can answer a specific work question.
Write, draw, or say your answer. You may pass.
The example
A fictional social post says every designer travels. A supplied interview excerpt says one school map designer works mostly at a desk. Neither source describes every design role.
A worked response
Ask whose work is described and what evidence is given. One person’s routine cannot prove what everyone does.
Your task
1. Underline the word every in the post.
2. Compare it with the limited claim in the interview.
3. Write a question about a specific design role rather than all designers.

Questions
1. What broad claim does the post make?
2. Whose work does the interview describe?
3. What does neither source establish?
4. What question would make a later search more specific?
