NSG2204 Critical Analysis of A Public Primary Health Care Assessment 2-AU.
The ability to critically analyse is an essential skill at university.
- To analyse something means to examine it in detail so that you can describe and explain the issues, make connections and see relationships between information.
- To critique something means to give your opinion on something (for example, what has been done/has been written/an approach); and then support your opinion with evidence (literature/ references). Critiquing is NOT simply stating something is ‘good’ or ‘bad’. It is presenting your opinion after you have analysed a topic and supporting your opinion and ideas with research and the literature you have read.
