EAPP REVIEWER

REACTION, REVIEW, and CRITIQUE PAPERS

- have the same goal—to give a fair judgment or assessment of a


work of art, event or program.

1. REACTION PAPER

- used in elementary level.

- you will be asked to give your reaction on what you have heard,
seen or experienced.

2. REVIEW PAPER

- a term used for the write up of journalists or columnists in


expressing their opinion; it balances opinions with facts.

3. CRITIQUE PAPER

- This is most academic in nature.

- used in senior high school, college and graduate school.

- the most challenging to write because you will not only write your
personal opinion but will also need to integrate many facts
supported by sources.

WAYS IN WRITING A BALANCED REVIEW/CRITIQUE PAPER

1. INTRODUCTION PART

— need to provide a background information about the topic,


— you can include current problems or information that is
accessible to the readers.

Example:

The best metaphor for Facebook is the monster created by Dr. Frankenstein.
Mary Shelley’s story shows how, as Fiona Sampson put it in a recent
Guardian article, “aspiration and progress are indistinguishable from hubris
until something goes wrong, when suddenly we see all too clearly what was
reasonable endeavour and what overreaching”.

2. BODY [PART]

— give an overview of the central features of the topic by providing


a brief summary or specific descriptions of the event, book,
concept, or object being critiqued.

— aside from giving an overview, it is essential to provide informed


insights on those features, e.g. writing the observable and
comparable strength and weakness of the topic to another topic.

3. CONCLUSION or FINAL SECTION

- you should summarize the strengths and weaknesses of the


subject.

- it should stand out the recommendation to strengthen your claims


and negative appraisal expressed with tact.

CRITIQUE
- a careful analysis of an argument to determine:
1. What is said
2. How well the points are made
3. What assumptions underlie the argument
4. What issues are overlooked
5. What implications are drawn from such observations .

- It is a systematic, yet personal response and evaluation of what


you read.

- It is important that you understand what you critique about and what
approach will be necessary to come up with a better review.

For example, after watching a movie or reading a story, you would be saying
a lot if things about it. You will express your thoughts and personal opinions
whether they be negative or positive. You will also comment on the actors
and actresses and the role they play. Doing so, it is important to understand
the different approaches we can use to guide us in critiquing a paper.
