- Reading
- Read one article at a time, pausing to compare its claims with the charts, graphs and fact boxes; keep track of which points are evidence and which are viewpoints.
- Themes
- Competing approaches to a public-health issue: Articles present opposing viewpoints on factors contributing to STD spread, education programmes, and whether government regulation could reduce infections. The pro/con structure places competing positions side by side for comparison and critical thought.
- Worth knowing
- The subject is sexually transmitted infections and sexual health, with coverage of disease spread, education programmes, and government regulation.
