Ranking Evidence

This instructional resource focuses on evaluating the quality and relevance of evidence used for supporting claims. Students will evaluate the evidence in articles related to the topic of homework. They will engage in discussion of the articles and ultimately plan and compose an argument that uses carefully selected, and intentionally ordered, evidence from the sources.
