Description
In
your first formal writing assignment, WA#1, you will gather five scholarly
sources on the topic that you've chosen and create an annotated bibliography.
An annotated bibliography consists of an APA formatted citation and a written
paragraph that summarizes, describes, and evaluates the material in the
article. After summarizing the article, it is a good idea to evaluate it. Does
the source seem reliable? Is it current? What limitations have you noted in the
study? How does the material relate to your topic? Will you find the material
useful for your work?
Please
access the sample, student annotated bibliography attached: Sample
Annotated Bibliography. As you read over this sample annotated bibliography,
choose one of the annotations and respond to the following
questions:
1. Identify the claim made by the
author(s) of the article
2. Has the student identified the
main strengths in the study?
3. Identify the conclusion reached
by the authors of the article
4. Are there any limitations in
the study, according to the student who wrote the annotation?
5. Does the student who wrote the
annotation make clear whether the source is useful/not useful for his or her
own work?
