Task 7 - Test 4: Claims & Evidence
A green package is not evidence, and a leaf symbol is not automatically a certification.
Step 1 - Does each package give real evidence?
🤖
Wonder Learning AI
"What does an eco-label mean?"
"An eco-label is a symbol on a package that tells you a product is good for the environment. Any package showing a green leaf or a 'natural' symbol has been checked by an official organisation and is guaranteed to be eco-friendly. Looking for these symbols is the easiest way to shop sustainably."
Tap the highlighted sentence above, then fact-check it against a trusted source:
Good fact-check - this is incorrect. A leaf drawing or a word like "natural" is not automatically checked by anyone. A real eco-label is a named certification with a licence number that you can look up (for example the EU Ecolabel or a forest-certification body) - the AI's sentence treats an unverified symbol as a guarantee, which it is not. The student - not the AI - makes the final decision.
Step 3 - Three quick questions · ungraded
True or False: "A green package with a leaf drawing proves a product is sustainable."
Which of these counts as real evidence of sustainability?
Product A scores 4 for absorbency (weight 30%). How many points does that add to its scorecard total?
Step 4 - Rank best evidence to worst
1st - 4pts

2nd - 3pts

3rd - 2pts

All four tests done. Now let's combine your rankings into one weighted score.
What happens in Task 7
A 6-minute Phase 3 - Investigation activity. Students judge the sustainability evidence on four fictional packages, ask the Wonder Learning AI what an eco-label means, fact-check one of its sentences, answer three ungraded questions, then rank the products by evidence quality.
🎯 Learning objectives
To identify environmental information and sustainability claims on packaging, and to question and verify AI-generated advice rather than trusting it automatically.
