A good way to approach it is to write an informal outline for yourself. The purpose of the outline is to use it as a kind of checklist to make sure you cover all the key points of the article, your thoughts, your suggestions, strengths, and weaknesses of the author’s points and why you feel that way and concluding comments you want to make. You also use the checklist to make sure you properly format the paper in APA format that has to be the 7th edition as broken down in the 7th edition of the CSU APA Citation Guide that went into effect July 1, 2020. Below is an idea of how you might structure your outline. Note: Be sure to use headers for all main topics and clear paragraph separations in all papers, essays, and in speaker notes for PowerPoint assignments. Outline: Paper Topic A. Introduction for “Article Critiques/Reviews”: a. Identify the article title and publication document (Journal, Magazine, etc.) b. Name the author/authors by full name and date of the article (not the library date but the date of the actual article c. Briefly identify the author’s main points/thesis and what will be analyzed d. Identify your main points of what you will address in the critique e. Note: The introduction is usually no more than 2 or 3 paragraphs f. For Case Studies: You cover some key points of the case in your introduction paragraph although as with an article critique and article review paper a case study needs to open to cover a brief picture of what transpired to alert the reader of what will be analyzed. An example of how an introduction to this case might read after the opening quote that was a good way to start, you would write something brief and concise like: This case addresses some important elements of any manager’s job. The case involves ethics, decision-making, taking care of your employees, maintaining the integrity of the chain of command, and whistleblowing. The case focuses on a brand-new employee and manager beginning his career, his boss, employees, and customers. The above example paints a clear picture of what is going to be addressed and covered in the body of the paper with the analysis of the case. This concise introduction gets the reader’s interest quickly and whets the appetite of the reader who is now interested and all-in on what is to come. g. For PowerPoint: Make sure you have thorough and detailed speaker notes for all the slides. Use the “6 x 6” rule meaning each slide should be brief with bullet points rather than text. There should be no more than 6 bullet points for each slide and no more than 6 words per bullet. The speaker notes are where you need to get into detail and address each bullet point. Approach the speaker notes as if you were writing an essay to cover every bullet point. Have clear examples and be sure to properly cite all your sources in APA format in the notes. DO NOT USE VOICEOVERS. Be sure to closely follow “all” the instructions in both the Unit Introduction and Unit PPT posts. A. Body: a. Begin with restating on separate lines each point noted in the introduction that you are going to address in the paper. Then check them off the list as you write and cover each one in your own words and apply the 80/20 rule meaning no more than about 20 percent of the paper should be paraphrases and quotes from sources and 80 percent or more of your own words, thoughts, opinions, and comments. b. Go into detail on each point and make sure you include your thoughts, your opinions, comments on what you feel are strong and relevant points, comments on what you feel are weak and need further explanation or research, and why. c. This is the main section and key part of the paper with a depth and detailed analysis of your article/case and points. d. Note: Don’t format the paper in a “Question & Answer” type paper. For example, some of the websites I will provide below with key information on writing article reviews address a series of questions to ask yourself and cover in the paper. Some students will just list the questions and provide a paragraph or two answering them. Don’t do that. Just use the questions as part of the outline and in your checklist to cover in the paper without listing a series of questions and answers. A. Conclusion: This is where you summarize and drive home any final points and comments with final thoughts and any suggestions or recommendations on further research that could be helpful and expand the topic. B. APA Formatting: Use the 7th edition of the CSU Citation Guide. When you first start writing follow all the guidelines on page 13 (Title page), page 12 (margins, line spacing, font, page numbers), page 6 for all in-text citing whether one or multiple authors, pages 5 & 7 for requirements of all cites having references and vice versa, and pages 8 – 11 for referencing guidelines. Page 19 is a sample paper in APA to see how titles are used what pages require a title and which ones don’t. Then beginning on page 6 you will find all the rules and guidelines for how to properly cite every different kind of source and citation along with how to reference all different types of references. Below are some helpful websites to review with Article Review tips and information: 1. 2. 3. www.wikihow.com/Write-an-Article-Review Note: The highlighted points are important. The series of questions are also good to pursue in your paper but not in simply providing the questions and answering them as noted above. Just use the questions as part of your outline and serve as a reminder to answer them in your discussion. www.history.vt.edu/undergraduate/article_review.htm Note: This one has some good information and includes a sample paper to use as a model for your own. https://www.slideshare.net/dapuchak/writing-an-article-review This is a brief slide presentation that has great information that could help with your outline. The key is to be thorough and clear using “Critical Analysis/Thinking” and detail. By “critical” I am not speaking about being negative or “criticizing”. Being “critical” means using and applying “critical thinking” and providing an in-depth discussion and analysis.
