each student is expected to prepare and submit a soft copy of a 4-page review (total number of pages that is roughly 1 page per article) of 4 of the designated readings (articles) of that particular session. These reviews should comprise a synthesis (summary + some critical analysis of each article).

The weekly reviews need to include a short summary of each paper followed by a critical evaluation. The last page/paragraph need to be reserved for a synthesis of all articles reviewed.
Be mindful to answer (most of) the following questions when reviewing each article:
– Motivation for the study and the research question(s)?
– What type of data and data sources were used and methodology employed?
– What are the major conclusions?
– Are there any deficiencies, empirical or theoretical?
– Are there any important, unanswered research questions arising therefrom that are interesting, significant, and reasonably doable.
– How do the articles relate to each other and how do they improve our understanding of the current topic
