Extra Credit - Week 2 - Article Evaluation
article source: analytical skills Analytical skill


 * Is everything in the article relevant to the article topic? Is there anything that distracted you?
 * Only the first a few sentences explained the definition of "Analytical Skill". But this short explanation mentioned other terms such as "critical thinking" and "problem-solving skills" which the author did not further explain.
 * The third paragraph is not closely related to the topic directly. Maybe the author could add a subtitle such as "teaching analytical skills at school".
 * Is any information out of date? Is anything missing that could be added?
 * The author referred two books, one in 1999 and the other in 1998. So both books are published long time ago. The author should add some recent theories or papers.
 * What else could be improved?
 * The author can add a chart to demonstrate what analytical skills include
 * Since the author mentioned schools, he/she can further illustrate the new discoveries or papers on how to teach students analytical skills at schools.
 * Is the article neutral? Are there any claims that appear heavily biased toward a particular position?
 * This article is neutral.
 * Is each fact referenced with an appropriate, reliable reference? Where does the information come from? Are these neutral sources? If biased, is that bias noted?
 * This article does not have thorough and reliable references. The definition of analytical skills are still waiting for a more authoritative source instead of the Wikipedia itself. Claim such as "in order to develop the analytical skill necessary to be successful at it one must practice and experience riding" should also have reference to back up.
