# Practical: create a fact-checked announcement

AI Content Creation | Module 04: Research before you draft

## Your goal

Make a claim log and edit a draft that contains unsupported workshop promises.

Bring together the two lessons in this module. Make a claim log and edit a draft that contains unsupported workshop promises. Use the fictional Green Bench source pack, and keep missing details visible in your working notes.

Your finished work should include: A claim log with source and keep, remove, or verify decisions. An edited announcement and unresolved questions. Keep the actual text in the workspace. For media, describe your file or storyboard, its version, and the decisions it shows. Media files stay on your device; this form saves text only.

Try this review experiment: Add three clearly labelled fictional errors to a practice draft. Find and correct them using only the source pack. Record what changed and why. You may use your own AI tool or work from the supplied sample drafts. Label which approach you used. The checklist checks completeness and your review record, not creative quality.

## Source pack

FICTIONAL PRACTICE BRIEF: Green Bench is a student repair club. It runs a free notebook-cover repair workshop on Saturday, 14:00 to 16:00, in Room B. There are 12 places. Learners bring one worn notebook; tools and scrap card are provided. Register using the club form. No date, form URL, access arrangements, impact figures, or testimonials have been supplied. Ask the organiser about missing details before publishing. This is a creative exercise, not a real event.
