Critical Review Letter

How well are public news articles about supply chain management argued? Here's your chance to respond to the author or the editor, with your suggestions on how their article could be improved!

Select a publicly available, relevant (for example, see topics that will be covered across Modules 1-6) newspaper article published in the last five years from one of the following online newspapers:

- The Age
- Herald Sun
- Australian Manufacturing
- Procurement and Supply Australasia

Make sure you choose an article that enables you to either refute the topic, accept the main argument and refine the key points, or highlight the strengths and weaknesses.

Write a critical review letter to the author or the editor of the publication (you will have to address the letter to the author/editor), detailing your critique of the article, and justifying your opinions, with reference to both the material covered in Module 1 of this subject, and to the relevant academic literature (at least 3 academic sources). Make sure your response is engaging, well-informed, and analytic - increase your chances of your response being published!

Remember to attach your chosen article as an appendix to the critical response paper, so that we can see the original author's work.
Read through the marking rubric for this assessment task carefully, before starting on your work. Prepare your critical review letter as a Word document, addressed to the author or editor.
