To successfully complete this assessment, students must consider key aspects of the photographs' reliability and also think about other information that could be used to evaluate the reliability of the photos. In Question 1, students should observe that the same deceased soldier was photographed in two different locations, which means that the bodies were likely arranged in at least one of the photos. In Question 2, students must identify another piece of information that would help them evaluate the photographs.
