Journal Article Critique Instructions

  1. Choose 2 articles from professional journals of education (scholarly and/or peer-reviewed articles only). You must choose articles related to the language arts topic you selected from the course textbook. This topic must be clearly included in your title on the title page. Articles must be published within the last 5 years and must be more than 5 pages.
  2. Your review must be written in your words and include 1–2 scholarly citations per paragraph in current APA format, except in the reflective section where none are included. Do not over quote from the article. Instead, summarize and paraphrase.
  3. Write a separate critique for each journal article. However, the assignment will be submitted as 1 Microsoft Word document. The content of the paper, including 2 critiques, must be 4–5 pages. In addition to the content, make sure to include a title and reference page.
  4. Organize and format each critique with the headings and subheadings outlined below. Do not write the questions. You must write your critiques with well-formed paragraphs that flow logically from one topic to the next.
  5. Format the paper in current APA, with the exception of the reflection section, which may include first person (I, me, my, etc.)
  6. Include a reference page formatted in the most current APA edition.
