Now, can you think of one more element you could add to make them even better?

6. Construct Look at the following pages taken from www.rightmove.com (read the Full description sections carefully) http://www.rightmove.co.uk/viewdetails-18117289.rsp?pa_n=1&tr_t=buy http://www.rightmove.co.uk/viewdetails-19926698.rsp?pa_n=1&tr_t=buy Make a list (a maximum of ten items) of the key pieces of information included in the Full descriptions. Using this list, go back and rank the key information in order of importance in terms of sustainability (1 = most sustainable feature/10 = least sustainable feature)

7. Demonstrate You will need to work in groups for this task. You will need to decide who will fill each of the following roles: Facilitator Time keeper Scribe Team representative TASK (Complete the tasks in this order) 1. As a group, you need to create a Full description for a house of the future which could appear on www.rightmove.co.uk 2.
