#3 – Annotated Bibliography

For ALL of the articles/sources you research inthe essay (the assignment details require SIX sources on the Annotated Bib, butonly FOUR will be required on the actual paper), you will complete an annotatedbibliography. That is just a fancy way of saying summary. First (and inalphabetical order), prove the full Works Cited citation in perfect MLA 8^thedition format. Then, the summary, which should be 100-150 words, so a smallparagraph. The summary MUST have either one DIRECT QUOTE or PARAPHRASEDMATERIAL with a citation that includes the page or paragraph number (you dontneed the authors last name since its a Bibliography). I AM CHECKING THIS FORPLAGARY, so do not copy and paste a summary of the article written by anyoneexcept you. Make sure to comment on whether or not you agree with the author.Also, please tell me how these articles will support your topic.

        What was the source’smain points?

        Was the articleconvincing?

        Did you find anyproblems in their argument or opinion?

Basically, you’re getting some of the legworkout of the way for the research essay and explaining what you have found inyour research. Remember to search for quality sources that have legitimate,professional authors, unless the source is a .gov or .edu site.

Wikipedia is not a valid source– but you can use the source links section of a Wikipediaarticle as a quick way to maybe find some good, legitimate sources.  

 I will send the paper and topic.
