Background
to
the task

The
assessment
requires you to select two academic journal articles the topic
area
‘The impact of culture on learning for international
students
studying in Australiaâ€and perform an
articlecritique on each.

An
academic
article critique requires you to engage with the articles that
you
have selected by summarising key points or arguments and
evaluating or
critiquing the way in which the author conducted
or has presented the research.
You will need to report the
articles main findings or ideas, contribution to
knowledge and
or methodologies used in the research, along with limitations,
and
or identification of future research. It is expected that you will
critique
these articles based on the concepts and understandings
that you have gained
about conducting research from this unit
and the knowledge that you have in the
area you have selected.

Hint:
Select
your
articles carefully as not all academic articles will present you
with
information thatwill enable you to critique easily, or
provide you with
the opportunity for thoughtful engagement.
Also, remember what you have been
learning in class.
