Article Critique

• Identify the articles

o Provide the reader with enough information about your articles so they will be able to locate the article. Describe your search process.

• Summarize the articles

o Identify the main points that the authors have tried to establish (i.e., 1, 2, 3, or first, second, third). There normally will be three to five main points per article. If you are summarizing a court case, you should discuss the following:

 What provision of the law was at issue? Briefly state the facts of the case.

 What legal tests were applied?

 Were there any unusual elements in the case?

o Provide sufficient information to demonstrate you understand the content of the article.

• Critique the article

o Provide your reaction (insightful, critical, and logical) to the points that the authors tried to make or an overall critique of the entire articles. A simple statement of agreement or disagreement is not sufficient. While you may make such a statement by way of introduction to your reaction, you must clearly and logically state the reasons for your position.
