Guidance for Success on the Week 4 Writing Assignment This week you will choose an article pertinent to your research topic and write a critical review of it to determine its credibility. You will not be re-writing it; rather, you will “de-construct” the article for the reader, analyzing the claims that the author makes and how well s/he supports those claims using logic and supporting evidence. You will also explain how this article fits into your research strategy to answer your research question and your thinking on the topic. Be certain to identify explicitly the specific claims the author makes.

Next, assess how well the author makes the claims you have identified. This includes assessing both how the author makes use of facts (i.e., evidence) and reasoning (i.e., logic) to support his/her claims and also a critical assessment of the credibility of the sources the author cites and upon which the author bases his/her claims. Did the author draw his/her evidence from credible sources, and did s/he make good use of the evidence? An author must do both well to be effective, and learning how to determine if an author accomplished these dual objectives is an essential component of becoming an effective researcher and writer!

Writing a scholarly article review.

Once you have addressed the claims and sources used for support, turn your attention to how the article relates to your own work by stating specifically how the article fits into your research strategy. Conclude your review of the article by stating whether the article helped you in developing an answer to your research question (it is okay if it did not), and letting the reader know if you gained any specific insight(s) from it and/or if it left you wondering about other aspects of your topic, or both (as long as you address both of these aspects, you will be okay). Use the components of the grading rubric as your subheadings to ensure that you address each aspect of the assignment.
