Articles must be selected from peer-reviewed professional journals of education. Articles must

be current (published within the last 5 years) and must address the topics listed above.

Use the Jerry Falwell Library in order to locate your articles. The research portal ERIC is one of

the most frequently used databases for researching education topics. However, Liberty

University’s EBSCOhost also provides full-length articles to download for free.

Include a PDF of the actual article along with your journal article review (the assignment

submission area allows multiple document uploads).

Write your article review using Microsoft Word (no other computer program, such as Works or

Word Perfect, is acceptable). Each Journal Article Review must be 350500 words and adhere to

current APA formatting. Each Journal Article Review must be accompanied by a title/reference

page, as well as at least 3 in-text citations and a reference page with a minimum 2 references.

One reference will be the selected article, another can be any other scholarly sources related to

the topic. Include a biblical Scripture(s) that relate to the topic. Give a brief explanation of the

selected Scripture.

Your Journal Article Review should consist of three parts:

Summary of the authors main points.

Personal response to the contents of the article (written in first person).

Scriptural integration.

Utilize a professional writing style. Do not begin with This article is about… Open the review

with a strong thesis statement and thoroughly summarize the authors main points in the first part

of your review. First-person can only be used in your detailed response to the article. Make sure

you identify each section with headings/sub-topics.
