An article review is personalized writing where you take someone’s else’s text (an expert on the subject) and:

1. Read it – sometimes this needs to be done more than once.
2. Understand it
3. Summarize it
4. Then write in your own words about the relevance and impact of the article on the chosen topic/subject and why.

Using the article analysis template below, please find two (2) scholarly articles from the FSW library that relate to your project topic which is On-boardng or New Employee Orientation.

How to Write an Analysis of an Article?

Start by reading an article in question to understand the author’s opinion and purpose. Then begin by creating an outline that will guide you through the main ideas as you prepare to write a critical analysis. Make sure you do the following:

· Try to avoid talking about your ideas in sentences that start with “I think”, “I believe” and “In my opinion”;

· Always make sure to introduce the topic, as the audience may not know the piece in question;

· Focus on the author’s strengths and weaknesses by trying to follow the same structure in all parts of the text;

· Always use evidence and facts to support your statements and ideas;

· Remain open and unbiased when preparing your work.

. Make sure you paraphrase what the author is saying, DO NOT copy and paste.
