Use headings to divide your literature review into two sections:

You will then identify the main idea of the article and summarize the most important information, concepts, and facts contained in the article.
2. Reflection: The reflection page contains well-thought-through ideas about the importance of the article to science education and a discussion of how to apply article content to teaching science.
Note: Your assignment will be checked for originality via the Turnitin plagiarism tool.
