- What is the purpose of the text?
- Can you locate the author's credentials? Estimate the credibility of the text.
- Is this source an appropriate level for this degree of academic writing? Is the source up-to-date?
- Do you agree with how your peer intends to apply the source? Can you think of any other applications?
- Do you notice any inaccuracies in the APA formatting?
