Content:
Your Journal Review should contain all of the following components and should conform to
APA style. I will also attach an example of what you need to know for format. Basically though,
it should have a cover page with Running head and page number, minimum of one page of text
double-spaced 12pt font, 1 inch margins all around, and reference page with your article
reference.
a. Briefly (1/2 to 1 page) summarize the primary purpose(s)/goal(s) of your article.
b. State what you feel are the three (or more) most important aspects/issues of your
article and why.
c. State what other information would have been helpful for your article.
d. State how your article supports or contradicts your views concerning the topic of
your article.
e. State how you might use the information in your article when working with children.
f. Define your overall view of your article and any other comments pertaining to your
article (e.g., did the article adequately explain all research methodology?)
Commented [KD1]: See heading in this document to see how it should be set up.
Commented [KD2]: Should be about ½ the way down the cover page. Centered on four lines.
