Then use them to critically reflect upon globalisation's social/political/or ethical implications for your professional practice. Post your test run critical reflection by following these steps: 1. Click on 'Add a new discussion posting'. 2. Write (or paste) your reflection into the message block and give it a subject title. (Please do not attach the original word file) 3. When you've finished writing, don't forget to scroll down and click on 'post to forum' at the bottom of the page. If you don't do this, you'll lose your posting. Important: Please find an article that has been peer-reviewed by UlrichsWeb. I don't know how to use this stuff, but my professor asked about that. Last assignment I lost 25 point because of that. So before you handle this assignment, you need to make sure you can find an article that has been peer-reviewed by UlrichsWeb please!!! (There are some link might help, Like: The first portion you'll write will be the summary, which will lead into your critique. About the summary, I will copy it and paste it under the instruction) The Critical Analysis (FINAL) The Critical Analysis Purpose and Audience When you write an essay that reviews the text of an author, your purpose is to evaluate the potential of their work for the community to whom the text is relevant. For example, if you are writing a critical analysis of an article in physics, then your commentary should be directed to members of that scholarly community. In writing your critical analysis, you are sharing your assessment of the text and supporting your evaluative position. In other words, your critical analysis should speak to the issues and concerns of the academic community for whom you are writing. In general, there are many ways that you can write a critical analysis, but the most common is to: • provide an introduction that mentions the author and title of the work, along with a brief interpretive summary of his or her main point/s, • present what you believe are the most important strengths and weaknesses of the text in the form of an argumentative claim, -and- • support the claim with appropriate and convincing evidence. You do not need to come up with commentaries about every aspect of the text, but focus on a select few that you believe need addressing. You should write the critical analysis as an argument, that is, you must be able to present your evaluation of the article convincingly. You may use examples from the text itself or draw from other disciplinary sources (class discussions, notes, or readings) to support your claims about the value of the text. This assignment will help you learn to recognize an author's claims and the logic of his or her argument. It will also help you to begin to position yourself in relation to information in your major as you find yourself agreeing or disagreeing with certain information or aspects of information over others. Finally, the critical analysis will help you begin to understand that in order to improve upon our current understandings of phenomena, scholars must dismantle the work of others to create new ways of thinking (theories, methods, etc.). For the purpose of this assignment, you should assume that your readers have not read the original text. Convince them that your evaluation is plausible by presenting enough detail and explanation so that they can "see" the evaluation of the text as you do. Requirements Your critical review should be approximately 5-6 pages (summary and critique combined), typed, double-spaced, using standard APA margins, type-size, and spacing. The first portion you'll write will be the summary, which will lead into your critique. By nature, a critical analysis is subjective. You will make particular claims about the article based on your subjective interpretation. Your goal, then, is to look at a text written from a new perspective. This might mean that you find the "gaps" in the writer's argument by identifying any pertinent information that has been neglected. Likewise, you might reinterpret the use and/or application of supporting data within the text. As Mathison explains, "Some of the intellectual tools in the students' critiques that were regarded highly by the professors included: (1) looking for the main points of the argument; (2) determining the meaning and assumptions of the argument; (3) judging the strengths and weaknesses of the various claims in the argument; (4) engaging in the argument as a critic, persuading others of the validity of a critique by providing lines of reasoning" (159). Here are some templates (I will upload this) to help you position your claims for the critique which follows the summary. The Critical Analysis Paper: The Summary Purpose When you write a summary about an article or essay, your purpose is to present a hypothesis about what you think the essay was "about." This hypothesis is your interpretation. In writing your summary, you are sharing your hypotheses concerning what the essay is about, and developing a reasonable and well-supported argument for them. This assignment asks you to use critical and rhetorical reading strategies to help develop a strong and meaningful interpretation of an article within your discipline. For the summary, your objective should not be to cover all the possible aspects of the article, but to focus on those aspects that will help support your argument--what YOU believe are the most prominent strengths and weaknesses.There is no single interpretation or "best" interpretation. Likewise, you do not need to come up with a new insight into the essay, though readers are generally pleased if you do.You should, however, try to identify weaknesses with the article's argument. Each claim you make should use specific examples from the article (paraphrase or quotation) as support. Ultimately, this assignment will help you to identify and understand the role assumptions (and implications) play in an author's argument. Recall that assumptions are fundamental ways of viewing and understanding the world in order to see the tension in an issue that is consistent with a particular position. Assumptions, then, are unarticulated attitudes, beliefs, and values that lie behind the way an author sees, defines, and solves a problem. The first step: Read the article for comprehension. This article on interpretative reading may be helpful. At this stage, make sure you understand the author's main argument, sub-claims and reasons for support. It's helpful to outline the article and write down your initial thoughts about strengths and weaknesses of the argument and HOW it's rhetorically constructed as well. The second step: At this point, you need to begin thinking about what kind of argument you want to make about this article. What seems particularly successful or engaging in this article? Why? What seems to be missing, or weak? What are the author's assumptions? Remember that the summary will be the introduction to your Critical Analysis--it should help you set up an argument about your interpretation of the article. You'll want to point out the main arguments which you may want to analyze later in the critique to support your "reading" of the text. Assignment requirements for assessment: • Select a scholarly and argumentative article on a topic in your discipline that you care about, as you might use the article for the final research project. • Clearly introduce the writer, article title, and publication in the opening paragraph of your summary. • Identify the issue that the article focuses on and explain how the writer feels about it. • Create an interpretative summary to convey your interpretation of the author's line of argument. Your finished summary should be 1-1.5 pages, typed, double-spaced and formatted according to the style guide used in your discipline (APA, MLA, etc.). Please look over the questions from Week 7 to help you develop the summary. The Summary: Tips for Success You've read, considered, researched and outlined, now you should be ready to compose a first draft of your summary paper. An effective summary will demonstrate your understanding of the article and the arguments it contains; it will also prepare the reader for your claim. As you compose a draft make sure to • Introduce the writer, article title and publication • Convey the central issue / problem that the author addresses • Represent the article fairly and objectively • Respond as a member of the discourse, not as an outsider or apprentice • Explain how the author being summarized feels about the issue • Identify the solution that the author recommends • Include enough detail to help the reader understand the key points of the argument & omit any unnecessary information • Make an obvious distinction between information presented in the article and your own words by using signal phrases ("Smith shows," "the author suggests," etc.) • Employ strong, active verbs: "Jones indicates" rather than "Jones is saying that" • Use transitions ("Additionally," "Moreover," "As a result," "Conversely," "Next," etc.) to help guide the reader through the progression of ideas • Avoid grammatical, punctuation and spelling errors • Adopt an objective tone and avoid hostile or defamatory language In my opinion, this assignment have these steps. So please make sure you follow these. • Find an article. (In summary part, it said: Select a scholarly and argumentative article on a topic in your discipline that you care about, as you might use the article for the final research project. • Then follow the rules of summary, do the summary part. • After you done summary, you can start the Critical Analysis part. • The format and writing style can be similar to the sample writing that I uploaded for you. But, make sure do not use same article with the sample article. • I have to mention it again, make sure the article that you found has been peer-review by UlrichsWeb.
