A. Health Critic (Definition): You will select a health issue and locate two peer review journal articles as well as one article in health magazines and evaluate the content of the information and criticize if the information is useful for an individual who may want to learn about this health concern and your explanation of the material will help you through your analysis.
B. Consumer Critic (Illustration/Definition/Causes and Effect/Argumentation): You will select an advertisement on a bill board, a magazine, a commercial, or an internet ad that you enjoyed or that you would like to critique and you will not only include your reaction to the advertisement but evaluate the role and purpose of the advertisement and include three researched sources with a focus on advertising.
