Purpose of a Critical R eview A critical review is a writin g task that asks you to summariz e and evaluate a text. The critical review can be of a book, a chapter, or a journal article. For the purposes of HEAL 4600 , you are asked to sel ect and critically review a journal article on global health that is available electronically from the UM Libraries website , located here: https://umanitoba.ca/libraries/ Writing a critical review requir es you to read your selected article in detail , and to also re ad other related articles , so that you can present a fair and reasonable evaluation of your chosen article . In other word s, the article you choose to review and the articles you use to support your opinions and evaluations of that article , should all be included in your reference list . What is meant by “Critical ”? For the purposes of this course , to be cr itical does not mean to criticiz e in a negative manner. Rather , it means to question the informati on and opinions presented in your chosen research article, and present your eva luation or judgement of that article . To do this well, you should attempt to understand the topic f rom different perspectives (in other words, read related academic articles ) that pertain to your chosen article. In terms of how many supporting art icles are req uired, there is no upper limit. Use as ma ny supporting articles as you need to justify your opinions and evaluations of the article under review . Hint: It ’s better to have too many supporting articles/ references than not enough. What is meant by “Evaluation /Judgement ”? It means that for the purposes of this assignment , you decide the st rengths and weaknesses of your chosen article . This is usually based on specific criteria. Evaluating requires an understanding of not just the content of the article , but also an understanding o f the article ’s purpose, the intended audience , and why it is structured the way that it is. What is meant by “Analysis ”? Analyz ing requires separating th e content and concepts of an article into their main components and then understanding how these interrelate, connect , and possibly impact each other. Structure of the Critical Review The HEAL 4600 critical review paper should be 8 ± ½ page s long (not including the title page and reference list) and should be written using APA 7 th edition style . Guidance on APA style can be found on the OWL at Purdue website located here:

https://owl.purdue.edu/owl/research_and_citation/apa_style/apa_style_introduction. html An APA 7 th edition sample student paper can be found here: https://owl.purdue.edu/owl/research_and_citation/apa_style/apa_formatting_and_style_guide/apa _sample_paper.html Students who are concerned wi th the quality of their written wor k are advised to consult the free UM writing tutors located here:

https://umanitoba.ca/student/academiclearning/writing_support/online_tutor.html The use of headings to guide the reader is strongly recommended . The final submi ssion is expected to flow well and not contain spelling, grammatical or punctuation errors. The following sections are rec ommended for inclusion in your p aper: Introduction The length of an introduction is usually one paragraph for a journal art icle review . Include a few opening sentences th at state the author(s) names , the title, and brief ly exp lain the topic at hand . Present the purpose of the article and summariz e the main finding(s) . Conclude the introduction with a brief statemen t of your evaluation of the article . This can be a p ositive or negative evaluation or, as is usua lly the case, a mixture of both. Summary Present a summary of the key points along with a limited number of examples from the article . You can also briefly explain the author’s purpose/intentions throughout the text , and you may b riefly describe how the text is organized. The summary should only t ake up about a third of the critical review. Critique The critique should be a balanced discussion and evaluation of the strengths, weakness and notable features of the article being critiqued . Remember to b ase your discussion on specific criteria. Good reviews also include other sources to support your evaluation (remember to reference). You can choose how to sequence your critique. Here are some examples to get you started:  Most important to least important concl usions you make about the text.  If your critique is mo re positive than negative, then present the negative points first and the positive last.  If your critique is more negative than positive, then present the pos itive points first and the negative last.  If there are both strengths and wea kness in the article , you need to decide overall what your judgement is. For example, you may want to comment on a key idea in the text and have both positive and ne gative comments. You could begin by stating what is good about the idea and then concede and explain how it is limited in some way. While this example shows a mixed evaluation, overall you are probably being more negative than positive.  Address each main critique point in a paragraph, including both negative and positive points.  Also include recommendations on how the text ca n be improved in terms of id eas and/or research approach.  Theories or frameworks may also be discussed in the critique section, if they apply. Co nclusion This is usually a very short paragraph .  Restate yo ur overall opinion of the text.  Briefly present your recommendations on how the article could be improved.  If necessary , some further qualification or explanation of your judgement can be included here . This can help your critique sound fair and reasonable. Summarizing and Paraphrasing for the Critical R eview Summariz ing and paraphrasing are essential skills for academic writing and in particular, for critical r eview s. To summariz e means to reduce a text to its main points and its most important ideas. The length of your summary for a critical review should only be about one quarter to one third of the whole critical review. The best way to summariz e is as follows : 1. Sca n the article . Look for information that can be deduced from the i ntroduction, conclusion, title and headings. What do these t ell yo u about the main points made in the article? 2. Locate key sentences and highlight main points as you read. 3. Rere ad the article and make separate notes on the main points. Examples and evidence do not need to be included at this stage. Usually they are used selectively in your critique. Paraphrasing means putting something into your own words. Paraphrasing offers an alternativ e to using direct quotations in your summary (and the critique) , and can be an efficient way to integrate your summary notes. The best way to paraphrase is to: 1. Review your summary notes . 2. Rewri te them in your own words using complete sentences . 3. Use r eportin g verbs and phrases. Examples are , “The author describes … ”, “Smith argues that …). 4. If you include specific phrases fr om the text you should use direct quotes, but be careful not to include too m any of them , or exceptionally long ones. Some Gener al Criteria for Evaluating Articles The following list of criteria and focus questions ma y be useful for reading your article and for preparing the critical review: Criteria Possible Focus Questions Significance and contribution to the field :  W hat is the author ’s aim?  To what extent has this aim been achieved?  What does this article add to the body of knowledge in the field (in terms of theory, data and/or practical application)?  What relationship does it bear to other works in the field?  What is missing/not stated?  Is this a problem? Methodology or approach :  W hat approac h was used for this research? (E .g., quantitative or qualitative, analysis/review of theory or current practice, comparative, cas e stu dy, other ).  How objective/biased is the approach?  Are the results valid and reliable?  What (if any) analytical framework was used to discuss the results? Argument and use of evidence:  Is there Is there a clear pr oblem, statement or hypothesis?  What claims are made?  Is the argument consistent?  What kin ds of evidence does the article rely on?  How valid and reliable is the evidence?  How effective is the evide nce in supporting the argument?  What conclusions are drawn?  Are these conclusions justified? Writ ing style and structure:  Does the wri ting style suit the intended audience (i.e. , academics) ?  Cou ld the article be better organiz ed?  How?
