Find and evaluate three sources of information on biomes.
This piece should provide some general description of one or two biomes (c. 300 words) and also provide a
separate review evaluation in a systematic review style.
Systematic review style means you should record the search engines you used to find information, the search
terms (keywords used) together with any boolean operators (if you don’t know what these are look them up!)
and the number of hits returned plus how may titles/pages you looked through.
The rest of the evaluation should describe the type of source, the authors, the intended audience; and,
consider possible bias as well as quality of the resource (c. 200 words).
Provide references in Harvard format.
