Option 1

 * Article title
 * Education for refugees, migrants and internally displaced people


 * Article Evaluation
 * - The article does not seem to be written in a neutral matter. The information provided throughout this article would almost suggest that education is the primary way that refugees can escape poverty without acknowledging many of the obstacles that refugee, migrant, and internally displaced people face within the education system. The complexities of poverty are overlooked in this article, including the multi-faced factors resulting in poverty, which can help readers.
 * - The article’s content is relevant to the topic but may be improved if there were more literature and information about trauma-informed care in education. Considering that refugees, migrants, and internally displaced people often have trauma that plays a significant role in their abilities to focus, interact, and learn in schools.
 * - The article intends to cover historically underrepresented or misrepresented populations (refugees, migrants, and internally displaced persons). Still, it does so in a way that doesn't quite acknowledge all of their obstacles, history in education, and importance of health concerning education. Covering these topics would offer readers a better understanding of education for refugees, migrants, and internally displaced people while informing them of gaps in education and funding prioritization.
 * - The mention of trauma and its effects on refugee, migrant, and internally displaced people is also minimal and should be expanded.
 * - Additionally, editors may improve the article by including case studies where countries took a trauma-informed care approach to address the impact of trauma on refugee students.

Option 2

 * Article title
 * National Center for Trauma-Informed Care


 * Article Evaluation
 * - Although this article’s content is mainly on the healing and healing processes through trauma-informed care, a section regarding the role of trauma-informed care in education would make this article much more applicable to readers.
 * - The article mentions how policies and services are intended to help those with traumatic pasts. This article may also include more information on the lack of or current allocation of resources and funds to inform readers of the current status in state provisioning.
 * - Additionally, this article could include the three pillars of trauma-informed care to address the issue in homes, schools, and the community to foster growth and healing among traumatized individuals.
 * - The article fails to mention underrepresented and marginalized people and the implications of trauma in their lives.

Option 3

 * Article title
 * Refugee children


 * Article Evaluation
 * - The section on education for refugee children within this article is quite extensive but still lacks more information on the role of trauma for refugees and migrants in schools.
 * - Additionally, the article and section on education mention teachers’ role as people who should foster growth and healing but fail to mention strategies that have been implemented and how they've helped refugee children. Editors may also improve this article by including information about the countries that used training programs for their teachers to adequately or attempt to help their students in the classroom.
 * - The tone for this article seems neutral; however, some viewpoints are missing. This article would be much more informative if it included recent studies of trauma-informed care in classrooms. Although this literature is limited, the information provided and suggestions are critical to understand in refugee education.
