Assignment: Annotated Bibliography

Create a complete Annotated Bibliography for 5 academic scholarly sources, which include your introduction and thesis, publication details, and the annotation (see below for examples of each component). A total of 5 academic-scholarly sources are required for completion of your final research project.

Scholarship means that:

• the author has a Ph.D. or other terminal degree,
• the work appears in a multi-volumed, peer-reviewed journal,
• and has ample references at the end.

Good annotations:

• capture publication details,
• offer a student introduction and thesis, and
• a detailed reading of the source, covering the following:

1. Offers the student's introduction and thesis to the best extent s/he knows it at this point in time,
2. Summarizes key points, and
3. identifies key terms (using quotation marks, and citing a page in parentheses);
4. Locates controversies or "problems" raised by the articles;
5. States whether the student agrees or disagrees and gives reasons;
6. Locates one or two quotations to be used in the final research project; and
7. Evaluates the ways in which this article is important and has helped the student to focus his/her understanding.
