Journal Article Review

Locate several articles in professional journals that explore the use of reading and writing in your content areas.  Your first article needs to come from a literacy journal:

 

Questions you should answer in your review:

  • What ideas are presented in the article?
  • How do these ideas connect to the principles/concepts explored in class?
  • Are these ideas "old paradigm" or "new paradigm" thinking? (or both!?)
  • Are there any inconsistencies in the author's argument? How does it compare to other readings you've done on this topic?
