Ed,
Attached are my comments regarding your AB. Some of them include the expansion of any acronyms. I realize that some of us know what they mean, but it's good to explain them. You did that for most, but some of them need to be expanded upon.
Overall, very well done. APA looks to be great and followed well. I used your template for the rubric grading below.
Thanks for the opportunity to share and learn from each other.
Dave.
APA Formatting: Proficient (14 points) – I wasn't sure if you needed to add the instructor's names and date to the header page. I thought I would mention it regardless.
Critical Summary: Distinguished (15 points) – All required elements were present.
Critical Assessment: Distinguished (15 points) – The presentation was done is such a way that all readers could understand the study presented. I learned that I did not take the reader into consideration as well as you did.
Critical Reflection: Distinguished (15 points) – The flow was done very well with thoughts presented with each one, while weaving the common theme into all reviews.
Technical: Proficient (13 points) – The use of 'we…' was used in the Intro (may be acceptable, but I thought the sentence could be re-worded). Acronyms can be expanded in some instances.

Ed,
I think your paper looks good. The one thing I would point out is that under each of your references where you give your summary of the article, you have the summary hanging or indented. When Pittman talked about this in the Wimba, Lausch and I were both under the impression that you should not do this. I am not sure if we took the correct meaning on this but it might be something to check out.

Doug, Dave, or John,
I would appreciate it if one of you would review my AB and provide me with feedback prior to mid-week. I have attached it. If you have any questions, please let me know. Thank you for your help with this.

Doug,
I would agree with you are going to do - see if Dr. Pittman or Dr. Gould correct it or not and then go from there. Sorry about the confusion.

Ed,
Thank you for the comments about the hyperlinks, I was not aware of that and did not pick up on it in the APA. I was talking to Fusco and he shared with me about not bolding the headings. But, here is what confused me on that:
Headings
APA Style uses a unique headings system to separate and classify paper sections. There are 5 heading levels in APA. The 6th edition of the APA manual revises and simplifies previous heading guidelines. Regardless of the number of levels, always use the headings in order, beginning with level 1. The format of each level is illustrated below:
APA Headings | |
Level | Format |
1 | Centered, Boldface, Uppercase and Lowercase Headings |
2 | Left-aligned, Boldface, Uppercase and Lowercase Heading |
3 | Indented, boldface, lowercase heading with a period. |
4 | Indented, boldface, italicized, lowercase heading with a period. |
5 | Indented, italicized, lowercase heading with a period. |
Thus, if the article has four sections, some of which have subsection and some of which don’t, use headings depending on the level of subordination. Section headings receive level one format. Subsections receive level two format. Subsections of subsections receive level three format. For example:
Methods (Level 1)
Site of Study (Level 2)
Participant Population (Level 2)
Teachers. (Level 3)
Students. (Level 3)
Results (Level 1)
Spatial Ability (Level 2)
Test one. (level 3)
Teachers with experience. (Level 4)
Teachers in training. (Level 4)
Test two. (Level 3)
Kinesthetic Ability (Level 2)
In APA Style, the Introduction section never gets a heading and headings are not indicated by letters or numbers. Levels of headings will depend upon the length and organization of your paper. Regardless, always begin with level one headings and proceed to level two, etc.
As you see it says to bold the headings. I had this argument with Lausch and I decided to leave them in and if I get corrected on it I will take them out. But, I am really not sure about it.

Doug,
My apologies for not getting this to you earlier in the day. I have attached you AB with comments embedded into the document. I have also recreated the rubric provided to us by Dr. Pittman below:
APA Formatting: Proficient (13 points) – Score earned was a result of the bold headings, spacing between citations, and use of hyperlinks.
Critical Summary: Distinguished (15 points) – All required elements of the summary were provided and writing was both clear and concise.
Critical Assessment: Distinguished (15 points) – Presentation of ideas was done in a clear and understandable manner.
Critical Reflection: Distinguished (15 points) – A refection was provided on each source and an overall introduction was articulated in an effective manner.
Technical: Proficient (13 points) – Citations were not completely accurate given the use of hyperlinks.
Overall, your AB is well written and will certainly serve to broaden the foundation of literature you have already procured on your topic. Well done!
