Critical evaluation paper: Students will prepare a narrative evaluation of a selected research article. Although other sources may be approved, preference is for articles in peer-reviewed journals in the library or full-text articles through UWA Library Online services. If an online article is used, include sufficient citation for the instructor to locate the article on the Internet. The submission must include a copy, or link to the article itself. It is expected that the assignment will be approximately eight paragraphs in length. A guideline for the evaluation is stated in the Rubric below.CRITICAL ANALYSIS PAPER RUBRIC
