Scoring rubric

  • 5 = teachable, evidence-led and responsible
  • 3 = useful but needs limitation language
  • 1 = persuasive but unsafe

Red flags

  • Overstating confidence
  • Using anonymous chart claims as historical proof
  • Removing uncertainty to sound authoritative
  • Teaching entries without risk context
