Critical Analysis Assignment

 

Assignment Due: Friday, April 24th, 2021 by 11:59 PM

 

This is the final writing assignment for the semester. In this paper, you will review a book related to Alaska Native studies and provide a 4 to 6 (not including title page and references page) page critical analysis paper.

 

Please follow the directions below to complete your assignment. You must use standard academic English and provide citations in Chicago (CMS) style. You must incorporate at least two (2) articles that we have read as a class throughout the semester and you must cite these additional sources correctly. Be sure to proofread and spellcheck your final version.

 

Instructions:

 

1. In this 4 to 6 page paper (1200 to 1800 words), you are expected to do more than summarize the book you have chosen.

1. Your paper is a critical review of the content of your book; this means you will tell me what the author intended to say & and how they said it (summary) and then evaluate whether the author was successful in stating and supporting their argument (analysis).

1. Summary should make up no more than 1/3 of your paper’s length.

1. Analysis will vary depending on the book you have chosen; here are some examples of analysis on which you may choose to focus:

1. You may choose to focus on the methods your author has used to gather their information; is this a reliable method? Does the author use their chosen method correctly?

1. You may focus on the author’s background; is this author qualified to carry out this type of work? Why or why not? (hint: critical analysis is not always negative)

1. You may focus on the evidence presented; is it compelling? Does it fully support what the author is trying to prove? Why or why not?

1. You may feel that information is missing or that some information presented don’t quite fit in the book; why or why not?.

1. There are many other avenues you may choose to pursue in your analysis

1. If you use additional sources to critique your book, you must cite those sources.

1. Your analysis must also include a section or focus on how this book relates to a topic we’ve covered in our readings of Alaska Native studies. This must cite at least two of the authors we’ve read this semester.
