Instructions
Based on the topic and theoretical lens you have chosen in Unit Four, carry out a review of the literature around the topic selected and generate an annotated bibliography.
- Gather and assess five scholarly research articles relevant to your topic, compiling these articles into an annotated bibliography.
- Annotated bibliographies are comprised of a brief summary of the article and a discussion and assessment of how the article will contribute to the research project.
- These five sources must be scholarly sources of original research, such as journal articles and books.
- Although students may use relevant course readings for their research projects, the annotated bibliographies must not include course readings.
- Each annotated bibliography should be approximately 150 – 200 words per entry (total 750 – 1000 words).
- Annotated bibliographies must be written according to academic standards of scholarship and referencing using APA.
- There are many helpful university-based websites, including the following, to help students prepare their annotated bibliographies:
- OWL. (n.d.). Purdue online writing lab. https://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/614/03/
- Cornell Unversity. (n.d.). How to prepare an annotated bibliography: The annotated bibliography. http://guides.library.cornell.edu/annotatedbibliography
