A critique is NOT a SUMMARY, rather it is an analytical and precise assessment of a literary work— in this case a referred journal article. The essence of a critique is “what” YOU think and “WHY.” Forexample, ask yourself the following questions—if applicable:Clarity of author’s position and logical consistency.Is the author clear about factors that he/she perceive as being responsible forcausing the problem/topic under investigation, i.e., the focus of the article?Were any biases reflected in the article, and how might they have influenced the content,conclusions and relevance?Are the author’s findings/conclusions consistent with the body of work and evidence based?No points will be given for summarizing the article. You have a limited number of pages;therefore, use the allotted space wisely and avoid unnecessary statements (no fillers). In order to maximizeyour effort, adhere to the following guidelines:the critique must be between 2 1/2 and 3 pages (excluding cover page); NO quotations,the critique must be typed and double-spaced (NO handwritten pages will be accepted),

use cover page for your name and title of article; margins must not exceed 1 inch.
