SOWK 2090- Intro to Policy and Research
Article Analysis Rubric/Criteria
During the semester, students will analyze a research article and discuss the findings in a written assignment. Students will find one article relevant to a social topic (one that we would study in social work) & summarize the article. This assignment is worth 35 points. Below is the format students must follow.
Students may complete two different types of analyses: (1) Article Critique, or (2) A Practice Implications paper. An article critique looks at a study and critiques the good, the bad, and the indifferent. A Practice Implication discusses a unique or novel finding and how it applies to practice or further research. See the rubrics below for how the two are graded differently. Both are expected to be a minimum of 2 (two) complete written pages.
The analysis must follow the format of the annotated bibliography assignment, with a running head and the article citation at the top of the first page. There should only be one double space after the article and students need to omit long doi addresses, as that will not be considered part of the minimum page requirement.
