Q Instructions: Do not begin this assignment until your article from last week is approved. Students will use their approved topic article from last week (if not yet approved, check feedback and/or contact instructor) and write an article review paper on the article in APA format following the outlined order provided below (make sure you utilize the sample paper provided below as well). An article review paper is different from a research paper. A research paper focuses on a topic (for example, Employee Compensation), the student proposes a theory or stance on the topic or sub-topic within the topic (for example, Effectiveness of Compensating Executives with Stock Options), and then the student uses several different outside research sources (such as journal articles, professional articles, textbooks, etc.) to support the theory or stance. An article review paper, on the other hand, focuses on your evaluation of a professional or journal article writer's stance or opinion on the topic they wrote on (see the article review paper format and order below, along with the sample article review paper). Please follow the directions and review the sample paper carefully. The paper must be at least 1 full page in length (not counting the title page and the reference page) and no more than 3 pages (again not counting the title and reference pages). Ensure you follow APA formatting for the paper, to include the title page, the in-text citations, and the reference page. The paper should demonstrate an understanding of the topic and critical thinking skills. The article review should be in the following format and order: > APA-styled Title Page > Introduction/Framework (Provide a general overview/summary of article) > Analysis (What's the significance of the article to the topic itself & HR field as a whole) > Conclusions/Opinion (What is your conclusion/evaluation of the article) > Reference Page (includes APA reference list that should include, at-a-minimum, the article itself and any other sources cited in your review paper of the article) Please submit as a Word document. See sample paper below for example of proper paper formatting (to include section headers), APA formatting requirements, and explanations of suggested content: Sample Paper Format and Explanations For help on APA formatting refer to: 1.
