The presentation will consist of a title slide, 3-4
presentation slides, and a references slide for a total of 6-7 slides. Students
will summarize and analyze one current newspaper article (written in the
semester year of the course). The article must relate to some aspect of health
policy or health care issue that could influence health policy. One critique
will use an article from the Business section of the newspaper (Topical outline
will inform you when to select an article from the Business section). The
article will be summarized and presented in electronic slide format (e.g.
PowerPoint). The article posted must be cited in APA format (see APA Style
Manual 7th edition for citing newspaper articles). The only reference used in
