Critical Review – optional for extra credit 75 pts
You can prepare one critical review of published literature during the semester. The purpose of the review is to give you experience in reading, evaluating, and incorporating technical literature into your knowledge base. Although you must prepare a summary of the material read, emphasis must be placed on your evaluation of the literature:
1. How the information aligns with what you already know.
2. How the new information impacts your outlook.
3. The significance of the information to your knowledge base.
Also include in the review why you selected the particular article. Identify the article reviewed using a consistent citation format.
If you choose not to use an article that Dr. J has sent you; then the article must have been written between 2010-present and approved by Dr. J.
Your review should be 2-3 pages of 12-pt double-spaced text with 1″³-margins. You must submit a hardcopy of the review by the due date indicated below. As this assignment gives you an opportunity to generate some extra credit, late submissions will not be accepted.
Also, to help those students who do not know what is expected in the paper I have attached a copy of the paper that was turned in along with the grade. If anyone turns in the same Critical Review as the attached sample, they will get ZERO points for the assignment. Plagiarism under any circumstances is not permitted. If you are still having troubles come by my office or Dr. J’s office and we will help you.
