A critique of an article is the objective analysis of a literary or scientific piece, with emphasis
on whether or not the author supported the main points with reasonable and applicable arguments
based on facts. It's easy to get caught up it. A good critique demonstrates your impressions of the
article, while providing ample evidence to back up your impressions. As the critic, take time to read
carefully and thoughtfully, prepare your arguments and evidence, and write clearly and cogently.
In writing a critique, it necessitates some in simply summarizing the points of an article
without truly analyzing and challenging active reading which constitutes the following: read through
the article once to get the main idea; mark up the text as you read through it again; create a legend
for your markings; take some longer notes during subsequent readings; and develop a preliminary
concept for your critique. These processes therefore made the writing of a critique to have at least
the required foundation to start with.
