A critique is a genre of academic writing that briefly summarises and critically evaluates a work or concept. HUMAN RESOURCE CRITIQUE.
Like an essay, a critique uses a formal, academic writing style and has a clear structure: an introduction, body and conclusion. However, the body of a critique includes a summary of the work and a detailed evaluation. The purpose of an evaluation is to gauge the usefulness or impact of a work. HUMAN RESOURCE CRITIQUE.
How to write a critique
Before you start writing, it is important to have a thorough understanding of the work (two workshops presented in this Unit) that will be critiqued.
- Study the work under discussion.
- Make notes on key parts of the work.
- Develop an understanding of the main argument or purpose being expressed in the work.
- Consider how the work relates to a broader issue or context. HUMAN RESOURCE CRITIQUE.
It is important to note that you are not critiquing the presentation delivery but rather the focus is on the information. HUMAN RESOURCE CRITIQUE.
Example Structure
Workshop 1
Introduction (~50 words)
Name the work being reviewed. Describe the main argument or purpose of the work. Have a concluding sentence that signposts what your evaluation of the work will be. For instance, it may indicate whether it is a positive, negative, or mixed evaluation. HUMAN RESOURCE CRITIQUE.
Summary of Workshop (~150 words) 3 marks
Briefly summarise the main points. This summary should not be the focus of the critique and is usually shorter than the critical evaluation. HUMAN RESOURCE CRITIQUE.
Critical Evaluation (~500 words) 10 marks
This section should give a systematic and detailed assessment of the different elements of the work. A critical evaluation does not simply highlight negative impressions. It should deconstruct the work and identify both strengths and weaknesses. It should examine the work and evaluate its success, in light of its purpose. HUMAN RESOURCE CRITIQUE.
This evaluation is written in formal academic style and logically presented. Group and order your ideas into paragraphs. Start with the broad impressions first and then move into the details of the technical elements. You may discuss the strengths of the works, and then the weaknesses. HUMAN RESOURCE CRITIQUE.
To support the evaluation, provide evidence from the work itself, such as a quote (no long quotes please) or example, and you should also cite evidence from related sources. Explain how this evidence supports your evaluation of the work. HUMAN RESOURCE CRITIQUE.
Conclusion (~50 words)
This is usually a very brief paragraph, which includes:
- A statement indicating the overall evaluation of the work
- A summary of the key reasons, identified during the critical evaluation, why this evaluation was formed. HUMAN RESOURCE CRITIQUE.
