This is achieved by each group member specializing in a particular element of the flora or fauna present at the site, and contributing a separate section on their specialism to the written report. I will use these sections to help produce individual marks, although your mark will obviously depend on the strength of the report as a whole, as well as your individual contribution. Working as a group you will produce a poster that introduces your adopted study site, its habitats, wildlife and management. Poster size should be around 1m wide by 60 cm tall. It should be visually impacting, easy to read by a general audience, and yet be scientifically sound.
Good posters are succinct, using few words that are printed large.
They make good use of illustrations and are structured so that they are easy to follow, using numbered sections or arrows. Read the notes below on using scientific names and referencing. As stated above, it will be jointly produced, but each of you will author a section on their chosen specialist group of animals or plants. Approach your report as if writing a case study on habitat management. Include background information from the literature and don t presume that the reader is a conservation biologist i.e. introduce your habitat types, their wildlife and management.
