Conduct a comprehensive search
of the literature and locate 10 articles concerning data management and
business intelligence. You will want to concentrate on peer-reviewed journal
articles and conference proceedings for the past three years. Then, create an
annotated bibliography of all 10 articles. Each annotation should be at least a
page in length. Your entries should be APA formatted, and must have a logical
flow and transition between them. The final submission must be in APA format
and contain a title page, table of contents, and reference list.
The process:
1.
An annotated bibliography is not merely a
summary of the article.
2.
You will start with an appropriate
APA-formatted reference at the top of the page.
3.
Your annotation should include these items:
·
Summarize: Some annotations
merely summarize what the source says. That is not correct for this
assignment—your summary should include an analysis of the information as well.
What are the main arguments? What is the purpose of this article? What topics
are covered? What type of research was conducted? What were the results?
·
Assess: After summarizing a
source, you should evaluate it. Is it a useful source? Is the information
reliable? Is this source biased or objective? Were there any limitations? What
is the goal of this source? What is its relevance to the topic? What are the
study’s strengths and weaknesses?
·
Reflect: Once you've summarized
and assessed a source, you need to ask how it fits into your research. Was this
source helpful to you? How does it help you shape your argument? How can you
use this source in your research project? Has it changed how you think about
your topic?
This annotated bibliography
should provide sufficient background on the topic to provide a foundation for
additional scholarly work.
Length: 10 annotations, not
including title and reference pages
Your assignment should
demonstrate thoughtful consideration of the ideas and concepts presented in the
course by providing new thoughts and insights relating directly to this topic.
Your response should reflect scholarly writing and current APA standards. Be
sure to adhere to Northcentral University's Academic Integrity Policy.
