BSL 4060, Team Building and Leadership 3
In preparation, follow the guidelines established below:
Find two articles (that are less than five years old) that pertain to team building or improving team performance and
annotate, in your own words, as you read. Note the authors' main points and thesis statements. The critiques should be
approximately two to three pages EACH in length (not counting the title and reference page). The assignment is due at
the completion of Unit VIII. Plan early to avoid missing the deadline.
Part I: Introduction
Start EACH critique with the following information: the author's name, the article title, and the author's thesis statement.
Part II: Summary
Summarize the author's purpose and main points; providing examples for clarity of understanding the author's intended
implications. Share key topics that support the author's focus for this article. Provide ample details to enlighten the reader
as to what the article is implying for audiences who are seeking research data in regards to team building and/or the
different types of teams (e.g., virtual, temporary, traditional, or innovative).
Part III: Review and Evaluate
To critically review the article, ask the following questions:
What are the credentials/areas of expertise of the author? Did the author use appropriate methods to gather the
evidence? Did the author use accurate evidence? Does the author's use and interpretation of this evidence lead the
reader to the same conclusion? Did the author build a logical argument? Is there other evidence that would support a
counter-argument? Was the author successful in making his/her point?
Part IV: Conclusion
State whether you agree with the author or not. Back up your decisions by stating your reasons. Give a general opinion of
the work. Explain what you learned from reading the article and if you would recommend it to a friend/coworker.
Format your paper using APA style. Refer to resources provided in the Student Portal. Use your own words and
expressions to write the critique. Include citations and references as needed to avoid plagiarism. The paper should consist
of two to three pages of body paragraphs for EACH critique, one title page, and one reference page (as the final page).
