Strategy (4pts)

This criterion assesses the extent to which students understand how tensions between perspectives can impact the environmental or societal outcomes of a strategy that addresses an issue central to the student’s investigation. The environmental issue or strategy explored can be different to the one explored in the investigation. However, the issue must have a clearly stated and credible connection to the research question.

Tensions arise from potentially conflicting goals and needs of groups with different points of view.
