Research Prompt:
What you will be doing summarizing the content of the chapter and practicing your research skills. You will be doing that by creating a (mock) annotated bibliography for the content from Chapters 10. An annotated bibliography is just like a regular bibliography for a traditional paper, a list of sources, but for each source you have to include a paragraph explaining what the source is about (a summary). They are typically used in preparation of a paper, you will however be using these “Research Prompts” to show your ability to summarize and research, by creating an annotated bibliography that has two entries. Once for the chapter you were assigned and one for a similar topic you find on your own. Do not use History.com, do not use anything you do not think would be reliable. Please structure it in MLA format.
You must have an entry with a descriptive paragraph for Chapter 10 and one source you find on your own through research. The one source (primary or secondary) has to relate to the topic covered in Chapter 10. Be sure to include why you feel that source is important to understanding the content covered in this module, in the paragraph description of that source.
Some of the following topics may be what you would like to find more information on. (You are not limited to these suggestions, but they are the most important content from the chapter).
You might want to find a source that answer the following prompts from Chapter 10:
What are the Middle Ages?
Who were some key players during the various phases of the Middle Ages?
Why was their (the key players) role in the stability of Europe so important?
What did the power of the Roman Catholic Church in the Western World look like?
How did the spread of Christianity change the Western world?
What was life like in Europe, during the Middle Ages, leading up to the Reformation?
How did the Middle Ages affect the European economy?
Please make sure that your paper adheres to all of the following:
Double Spaced
Times New Roman Font
12pt Font
Must have at least 2 reliable sources (please see the attached page On Reliable Sources). You may use our textbook as one of the sources.
Must contain a bibliography that adheres to MLA standard citation
The descriptive paragraphs found in the annotated bibliography do not have a word count, they should identify why the source is important, why you would use it to express the point you want to express, and any vital information about the source’s origin or author if important. They should be anywhere from 4-6 sentences each, no longer.
A note on Reliable Sources
The following would all, generally, be classified as reliable sources:
Scholarly journals or academic papers
Published books from known publishers
Well-known and trusted newspapers (Clicking here) will bring you to a site that has a list of “Papers of Record,” or generally well-staffed and well-regarded English language papers)
Reputable encyclopedias (While Wikipedia has its purposes as a starting point for knowledge building, please refrain from using it for this assignment)
Well-known or institutionally respected sites
If you are not sure if a source is reliable, please ask and I will do my best to make a determination of its reliability
