Description
Article Critique Assignment Instructions
Overview
Creswell and Poth (2018) state, “I have always felt that the best way to learn how to write a qualitative study is to view a number of published qualitative journal articles and to look closely at the way they were composed” (p. 111). Thus, you are given the opportunity to examine articles about two different research approaches and write critiques about each of them.
Instructions
First, you must select a research approach that you would like to understand better from the Creswell & Poth textbook:
• Narrative (Appendix B)
• Phenomenological (Appendix C)
• Grounded Theory (Appendix D)
• Ethnography (Appendix E)
• Case Study (Appendix F)
You cannot do the same approach for both critiques. Choose onefor the first critique and select a different one for the second critique.
• Please see the Article Critique Template for specifications on length
• Follow APA formatting
After selecting the approach you want to study, read the corresponding article (one of the appendices in the textbook)for that approach and the accompanying textbook summary of the approach you selected (pp. 113–121). Next, you must choose aresearch article that corresponds to your chosen topic from the “Chapter Check-In” lists in your textbook (pp. 107, 124–125).Critique this article by following Creswell & Poth’s written model and the following format provided. Reread how Creswell & Poth carefully interject quotes from the article into their clear and concise article summaries to help you write your own summary.
Note: Your assignment will be checked for originality via the Turnitin plagiarism tool.
