Is training always an effective solution? Why, or why not? What evidence supports the main point?·
What is your opinion of the article? Do you agree with the author? Why, or why not?·
What evidence from the textbook or other sources supports your opinion?·

Use these guidelines to prepare your Article Critique:

It must be at least three pages in length.·

Summarize the article for page one.·
Think critically about the article and how it applies to the course for pages two and three.·

textbook, must be referenced. Any paraphrased and quoted material must have accompanying citations.
