ARTICLE CRITIQUES
When writing an article critique, students should analyze the reading, identify their personal reaction to it, and develop a clear, concise
explanation of support for their reaction. Knowledge of the discipline in which they are working is the basis on which students build the
explanation.
Read the entire article and identify the author’s main point. The goal is to understand what the author wants readers to understand.
In your own words, summarize the article using just one or two sentences. The summary should be an extract of the main points the author has
emphasize in his/her article and not a quotation.
After summarizing the article, the next step is to evaluate the article. Students should analyze how the author has supported his or her
ideas. Are there examples, facts, or opinions? What is the author’s bias? Are opposing arguments addressed competently? Is the author’s main
point convincing? Why or why not? Should the information be incorporated into personal and career pursuits or be rejected? Why or why not?
(Students may agree with some points and disagree with others).
*Remember don’t try to copy the author’s words in the summary as it is plagiarism and plagiarism is termed as academic dishonesty. (For
questions regarding plagiarism see tutorial 2.8 in the ACCESS program and section 8.1 of Academic Catalog).
