Which article are you evaluating?
Environmental studies

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
I chose this article to evaluate because it directly relates to course topics and because it is important for people across the globe to understand what the themes and purpose of environmental studies are to help humans understand our relationship with nature in a professional and holistic way. My preliminary impression of this article was that it gives a sufficient debrief of what the discipline of Environmental Studies entails both broadly and specific to different countries. However, this article focuses mainly on Environmental studies in developed countries like The U.S., Canada, and The UK. I think this article could also focus on how Environmental studies degrees can be used for different interdisciplinary careers and mention the broad environmental categories that the discipline explores.

Evaluate the article
Question: Is the article well organized- i.e. broken down into sections that reflect the major points of the topic?

This article gives a brief but inclusive summary of the interdisciplinary context that Environmental Studies entails. The information for each subheading is relevant and formatted in an appropriate manner. Having more subheadings for some of the disciplines mentioned in the lead section will create a more detailed and holistic description of what environmental studies are. For example, creating more subheadings titled: "Careers", " Global Environmental Studies", etc. could build better understanding of Environmental Studies through professional, global, and academic settings.
