Below is an explanation of what the critical review paper is expected to feature:

1. Like any paper written, the review paper should have an introduction section that ends with a research question/ topic sentence/ question that sets the stage for the content of your paper. Meaning when i read that last statement of the introduction, i should be able to know what it is you will be explaining throughout the rest of the paper. Following the introduction, there should be 2-3 body paragraphs highlighting the ideas that directly relate to your research question/topic sentence/ question. Finally all should be summarized and tied together in a concluding paragraph.

2. The entire critical review from cover page to references should be IN APA STYLE. fonts, in text citations, reference sections and heading should follow the APA style. You have to understand that 30% of the mark you receive on these papers is dedicated to APA style writing

3. The text should be written in a formal tone. you should also keep the tone passive. do not use “I”, “we”. Do not use abbreviations and exclamations.

4. The paper is not a platform for opinions. it is good to have an opinion but an opinion alone has no place in scientific writing. Either explain the logic (backed up by research and theory) behind the opinion or do not state it altogether.

WHILE READING THE ARTICLES THAT I WILL BE UPLOADING YOU SHOULD CHOOSE A TOPIC/IDEA/POINT RELATED TO THE ARTICLES AND WRITE THE ESSAY ABOUT. AND IN THE BODY YOU SHOULD AGREE OR DISAGREE WITH TOPIC THAT YOU ARE WRITING ABOUT WITH BACKED-UP EVIDENCE FROM OTHER SOURCES.
