During this course, you will complete two journal article critiques. For each of these homework, select one of the articles you included in your Annotated Bibliography Homework to critique. The two journal article critiques you will compose for this course are intended to build upon the Annotated Bibliography Homework and serve as a foundation for your Research Paper Homework later in the course. The articles you select to critique must be from professional journals and must be current (published no more than 5 years ago).
