ARTICLE REVIEW INSTRUCTIONS

During this course, you will be required to write an Article Review based on the topic described below. Use Liberty’s library database to find scholarly journals with peer-reviewed articles that contain original research. When selecting an article, keep in mind that you may also be using it as a source for your final Customized Learning Theory Paper.

Your Article Review must incorporate a thoughtful, biblical perspective throughout your review. As you write your review, be sure to follow proper, current APA format (Purdue OWL’s website contains an excellent sample of an APA-formatted paper). The length of each paper must be 4–5 pages which includes a reference list and a cover page (there is no need to include an abstract). When submitting the Article Review, be sure to attach a copy of the article you chose to review in addition to your APA-formatted review. Following are additional instructions for your review.
