Instructions to Learners:
Work with your partner to co-author an essay in which you provide an analysis of the selected article, providing your qualified opinion on its merits and shortcomings. The essay must be at least 2 pages and no longer than 4 pages (approximately 500 words). The title page and reference page are not included in the page or word count.

Begin your paper by providing the following information at the beginning of your critique:

  • Name of author(s)
  • Title of article
  • Title of journal, volume number, and page numbers

Read the complete article once to get an overview of the paper’s purpose. Then, read it again, but this time with a critical eye. You may find it helpful to divide the different components of the paper amongst team members. For example, one person could focus their efforts on critically evaluating the Introduction and Methods sections, while the other team member focuses on the Results and Discussion. You need to work with your partner to come to an agreement as to how the research article will be evaluated.
