Write a paper that critically analyzes an article you�ve found while researching for the Recommendation Proposal. Develop ideas thoroughly in writing by proving claims with specific and relevant evidence, demonstrating critical thinking skills, and applying effective writing strategies and appeals. Locate, evaluate, and integrate information purposefully using APA citation style, and compose multiple revisions aimed at focus, development, and organization before editing for grammar, punctuation, and clarity of delivery.
Why: This assignment strengthens your ability to analyze research materials in order to identify main ideas, supporting evidence, and conclusions, while building writing skills needed to demonstrate form, organization, syntax, diction, style, and tone appropriate for a given audience, subject, and purpose. It will also provide practice in research, revision, and editing.
How:
1) Select and read a research article to use in this analysis.
2) In your introductory paragraph, include a thesis statement that represents your position on
the article�s overall quality. The thesis must be clearly written, provide a debatable position, and offer an appropriate qualifier by the time the paper has reached its final revision.
3) In a body paragraph, consider the following questions related to the article�s purpose and intended audience*:
– What is the article�s purpose? Is the purpose stated or implied? Does it matter? – Does the article try to persuade, inform, or prove something? How?
– Is the article a primary or secondary source?
– Who is its intended audience? How might this influence its content?
– What type of periodical published the article (scholarly, popular, trade, etc.)?
4) In a body paragraph, consider the following questions related to the article�s authority
and ethos*:
– Does the author have adequate qualifications or expertise?
– Who is the sponsoring agency, organization, or institution for the periodical? – What are the agency�s/organization�s credentials and reputation?
5) In a body paragraph, consider the following questions related to the article�s accuracy, reliability, and currency*:
– Is a bibliography or reference list available so information can be verified? – Does the article offer trustworthy information?
– Is the article free of errors (grammar, spelling, etc.)?
– When was the article published?
– When were cited sources within the article originally published?
6) In a body paragraph, consider the following questions related to the article�s objectivity
and coverage*:
– Is the information biased or balanced?
– Is the text mostly fact or opinion? Is that appropriate? – Does the author use logical or emotional appeals?
– Does the article adequately cover its topic?
– Does the article present original ideas or rehash those of others? – Are significant aspects of the topic omitted?
– Are omissions acknowledged and explained?
7) Write a concluding paragraph that summarizes the article�s content and circles back to the paper�s introduction and thesis statement.
8) Revise the entire document as many times as necessary to ensure your thoughts are clearly conveyed and its paragraphs are logically developed.
9) The final version of your Article Evaluation Essay must detail your opinion (without using 1st person point-of-view words like �I� �me� �my�) of the particular article, clearly explain the reasoning behind your position, and provide specific examples from the article to reinforce your point(s).
