For this activity you will write a short, two-source annotated bibliography.
Your two narrowed sources should offer new data, information, perspectives, arguments, and/or insights that are not already found in your class’s closed research theme readings and background readings and that you think will help you compose fresh arguments in response to the closed research theme question.
Second, write your mini annotated bibliography.
For each source, write an MLA style or APA style source citation (as specified by your instructor).
After each source citation, write an evaluative annotation of the source. Each annotation should provide a concise description and summary of the source AND evaluate the source’s usefulness or relevance to the closed research theme question, its credibility, and its balance or bias. (See The Little Seagull Handbook, chapter W-16 in Module 6 for a guide for writing an evaluative annotation.) Each annotation should be about 150-200 words. NOTE: A summary is not enough! Your analysis of the relevance, credibility, and balance/bias is also expected. Write the annotation in your own words. DO NOT copy/paste abstracts.
Your mini-annotated bibliography needs to be formatted and documented in MLA or APA style, as specified by your instructor. This includes headers; title page (for APA style) or name, course, instructor, and date block and title (for MLA style); double-spacing of ALL text; and hanging indents for source citations. Also, be sure to alphabetize your source citations.
