Week 5 Writing Assignment: Annotated Bibliography

This week, you will focus on determining which sources you will use for your final assignment.

Due Sunday, 11:59 p.m. (Pacific time)

For your final paper, you will be required to have eight credible and scholarly sources. For this assignment, you must choose a minimum of five of those sources to create an annotated bibliography.

Use the Annotated Bibliography Handout Click for more options for help with formatting.

For each source, you will first need to have an appropriately formatted APA reference citation, immediately followed with a citation entry.

The citation entry should address the following components:

A short summary of the articles

An evaluation of the author’s background or authority

A description of the intended audience

A comparison of this work with other sources you have selected

An explanation of how this source supports or opposes your topic

Remember that your entire annotated bibliography should be double-spaced with no extra spaces between entries.

Your bibliography needs to be correctly indented with the first line of each reference list citation flush left with the left-hand margin (no indentation), and the second and proceeding lines should have a one-half inch hanging indent from the left-hand margin.

Your annotation begins on the line following the end of the reference, and lines up with the indented portion of the reference.

Your citations should be listed in alphabetical order by author’s last name.
