   \noindent
   \begin{enumerate}
     \item Note author's name and affiliation, title of article, and date
           of publication.
     \begin{itemize}
        \item[] Do you recognize the name?  Why? (is it good, bad, or
                merely familiar?)
        \item[] What does the title lead you to expect?
        \item[] Is it an old article? (possibly out of date, or perhaps
                germinal)
        \item[] Is it a new article? (possibly invigorating new
                research, opinion, or untested twaddle)
     \end{itemize}
   
     \item What is the author's thesis?
       \begin{itemize}
         \item[] What point the author trying to make?
         \item[] What is the question that the the author is trying to answer?
         \item[] Note the field from which they approach the problem
               (e.g., human factors, user interface design, program
               development).
       \end{itemize}

    \item
        How does this work fit into the larger research and development
        context?

    \item[\Pisymbol{pzd}{250}]
        Answers to these first three points are usually found in the first
        few paragraphs of the work.

    \item How is the work structured?
       \begin{itemize}
         \item[] Is it thematic?
         \item[] Is it a survey of various approaches?
         \item[] Is it a standard experimental model?
         \item[] Is it a narrative?
         \item[] Is it something else?
       \end{itemize}

    \item About their sources
       \begin{itemize}
         \item[] What sources did they used?
           \begin{itemize}
             \item[] Old articles, new articles, books?
             \item[] Personal communication and technical reports?
             \item[] Work based on a graduate thesis?
           \end{itemize}

         \item[] How are the sources used in the argument?
           \begin{itemize}
              \item[]
               Does the author synthesize the views from other works or do
               they use them in support of a plan of their own?
           \end{itemize}
       \end{itemize}

    \item Conclusions and Discussion of Results (for experiments)
       \begin{itemize}
          \item[] What do they think the import of the work is?
          \item[] 
            Some authors won't say everything in the conclusions section so
            be sure to read the introduction to see what they are trying to
            say (or do) and then look for more details in the rest of the
            work.

  \section*{Questions to Answer When Reading Articles}

   \noindent
   \begin{enumerate}
     \item
        What would you need to cite this article in a
        class essay or journal article of your own?  What would you need to
        know to find this article again?

        \begin{Pilist}{pzd}{50}
          \item What are the specific bibliographic details for this article
                (author, title, journal name, volume, number/month, year of
                publication, etc.)?  
        \end{Pilist}

     \item 
        What would you write about it for inclusion in an annotated
        bibliography?

        \begin{Pilist}{pzd}{50}
          \item Summarize the article.  

          \item Why is this article different from other articles?
                Is it because of what the author says, how they 
                say it, what they did, or something else. 

          \item What are the most salient points about the article?
         
          \item What are the most important points in the article?

          \item[\Pisymbol{pzd}{42}]
                Try not to exceed 512 words.
        \end{Pilist}

     \item 
        What are the best two things about the article?

     \item 
       If you could change only two things about the article, what would
       they be?

     \item 
       If you could ask the author(s) one question about the article,
       what would you ask?
       (An alternative: if someone were to write a follow-up article,
       what points would you want them to address?)

     \item 
       If you were to ask an undergraduate student two questions about
       the article (to see if they had read \emph{and} understood it),
       what two questions would you ask?

     \item 
       Did you like the article?  Why or why not?

     \item
       Is there anything else that you must say about the article or you
       will burst?
   \end{enumerate}
