paraphrases from the article (or other sources) and include a proper
bibliography at the end of your paper using APA format

of the article. Include the purpose for the article, how research was conducted
(if applicable), the results and other pertinent information from the article.
Discuss the meaning or implication of the
article. This should be two to three paragraphs and is where you offer your
opinion on the article. A key element to your review is to answer the question,
so what? What do you think? Don’t just say you whether you liked it or not.
Provide reasons and explain your logic. For example, did it help clarify your
understanding? What was omitted that would be useful? You may refer to other articles to support
