Annotated Bibilography Homework

An annotated bibliography is much like what i would call a "work cited page." It is a list of the sources you used in your work or research with a sumarization of some sort. It can be a list of books, articles, journals, or pictures but all of these must be cited in an annotated bibliography so your work is not considered plagiarism. An annotated bibliography is very helpful when doing a research project because it helps you learn more about your topic. It makes you read more carefully so you will be able to write a better summary. I believe you are requiring us to write one because these are extremely helpful when doing research projects and that is what we are working on in class. Also because we can understand what we are reading more if we have to summarize and tell whether it is a helpful/good source to use for our topics. Our annotated bibliography's could also help others if they are trying to understand our the research and why we used the sources we chose.

  1. Annotated bibliographies are a great way to start a research paper. It allows you to really get to know your sources. I have never wrote one before but i am looking forward to writing this one.
