Survival of the Fittest

Assessment Activity 2
  You are to produce a poster to show the comparison between Brian's survival experiences and strategies with that of the survivor you researched.    You will need to refer to your Research Findings (see research_format.rtf) and your Hatchet Log (see log.rtf) for your information.   You are to show both similarities and differences between these two survivors in a Venn Diagram form, but you may also use your artistic talents to enhance your poster presentation. You will produce a poster, using your artistic talents to enhance and add meaning to your written presentation.   Each form of presentation is equally acceptable.    Your poster presentation will be assessed by a fellow student and by your teacher. Your presentation should demonstrate that you have: 
·	selected a range of relevant comparisons between Brian and your researched survivor 
·	presented these comparisons on a poster in a Venn Diagram format 
·	used computer technology (where and when possible) to generate your poster 
·	been accurate with the spelling, punctuation and sense of your written comparisons to communicate effectively with your viewers (Teacher and members of your class)
·	demonstrated good poster layout design (see intro_static.rtf) and presentation skills: appropriate heading, appropriate size of print/font, with a balance between information and relevant images/graphics 
  You will also peer assess another student's poster.
