Option 1
Rated C, full evaluation of lack of updated sources, overwhelming structure, and lack of focus is posted in my assignment for last week. Many of the sources used in this piece are articles from media outlets that are outdated. I seek to update these and use academic journals and peer-reviewed information where I can. I will also look to update some of the links that are outdated or are no longer working.

Option 2
This article is rated C-Class and low importance. It provides comparative information about various developed countries' childcare programs, however, there is definitely an unequal amount of information for each country. Additionally, these countries are not representative of the global state of child care provisions. Perhaps including some developing and postcolonial countries in this article could provide a more comprehensive understanding of the issue. Scrolling through the sources, I noticed that many of them are outdated by at least five years if not more. There is a good mix of articles from journals as well as from various countries.

Option 3
This is an interesting article, but it is also rated C-Class and low importance. There are areas of this article that are not solely providing objective facts, rather, there is an argument being made by some previous authors of this article. This article could benefit from more of a comparative understanding of care work. As it stands, the article remains in a theoretical territory that limits its application sections later in the piece. By adding in more examples of public policies directed toward care work, this article can be more successful. This article cites particular authors more times than I have seen authors cited in other articles. Perhaps diversifying where the information for this article comes from will be beneficial.
