 Assignment Requirements:

Include at least Five Citations in your bibliography. Including at least one book, one periodical article and one website would be a beneficial learning experience but it is NOT REQUIRED . You are required to annotate all Five of the citations you use.

Cite the source in proper MLA format.  The citations should be organized in alphabetical order by author.           

Follow each citation with a brief annotation, approximately 3-5 sentences is good. 

Your Annotation “could” include a brief summary of the source, an explanation of why the source is important to your research and a statement that relates to the credibility of the author. Remember the key is to make annotations that help “you”.

You may write in a casual style in the summary BUT be cognizant of good grammar.
