The purpose of this assignment is for you to think critically about information presented in this unit. Unfortunately, we sometimes tend to read information and consider it correct without much thought. This assignment should assist you in modifying that process. Hopefully, this will help you to critique future articles as well as your own work. For this critique, you can choose one of three articles. Each article is located in the CSU Online Library. You should probably skim each article in order to determine which is the most interesting to you. The article options are provided below and may be accessed by visiting the Criminal Justice database in the CSU Online Library. To reduce the amount of results you receive, it is recommended to conduct an advanced search; enter the article title in the first search box, and enter the author’s last name in the second search box.
