Resource Management 95.806 Assignment 1 (20%). Essay: Review and Critical Commentary.

In this assignment you will select one research paper that describes research you think will be useful in writing your report and you will prepare a review and critical commentary of the paper. Your task is to write an essay to introduce your selected paper, to summerize it, and to critically review the paper. The term critically commentary means that you will examine the paper and evaluate the ideas from the author. The term “critical” does not mean “find faults” but to explore the ideas and to write to understand and to put the ideas into prespective with other writing on thetopic.

Before you begin writing select an academic paper that you can use as a case study in your final report. Please discuss this selection with your lecturer. I suggest you follow the marking rubric as an essay map.
