Papers

Structuring your Critical Reviews:

  • Your review should contain:
    • A brief summary of the paper (3-4 sentences). This should clearly identify the key insights (usually no more than 2) used in the paper.
    • A (bulletized) summary of the salient points made in the paper.
    • A critique of the limitations.
    • A “broader perspective” section, which could include things like:
      • your assessment of the importance of the paper.
      • open issues not addressed in the paper.
      • other areas in which the insights might apply.
  • You need not write a review larger than a page.
  • Please email me the review in PDF format.
  • The review is due before class begins on the day of the corresponding presentation. Late reviews will be penalized.
