Journal Critique Essay

You will evaluate and critique 1 research article from varying professional journals. The journal can be from any discipline that addresses a topic pertaining to culturally responsive teaching and learning specific to the module/week assigned. All articles must be current (5 years old or less). Your paper must include a title page, a reference page, and have a 225–250-word limit. Title page, in-text citations, and the reference page are NOT included in the word limit. Use current APA format.

Your Journal Critique should consist of three parts, each one paragraph in length:

• Summary Paragraph,
• Analysis of Author’s Key Points
• Personal Response

Personal pronouns are appropriate only in the personal response section.

When composing your reviews, remember to use graduate professional writing. Do not begin with “This article is about…” Instead, open the review with a strong thesis statement and summarize the author’s main points in the first paragraph. Using third person, state your personal reaction to the article in the final paragraph (“This author agrees/disagrees…” or “one can see that…”).
