Make sure you are paraphrasing your articles (as opposed to quoting directly). Critique of the advice in the popular press article using scholarly evidence. Is the advice good? Is it bad? Is it both good and bad? Why? How should it be altered or improved? You must provide evidence from your scholarly articles to support your critique.
