The Research Paper: Annotated Bibliography Assignment is a building block for your Research

Paper Assignment. For Research Paper: Annotated Bibliography Assignment, you will provide an

annotated bibliography of 15 references that you plan to use for your Research Paper. It needs to be

written in APA-7 format, with a cover page and references that each include a summary, analysis, and

reflection.

A good annotated bibliography:

Encourages you to think critically about the content of the works you are using, their place

within a field of study, and their relation to your own research and ideas.

Proves you have read and understand your sources.

Establishes your work as a valid source and you as a competent researcher.

An annotated bibliography is a list of scholarly sources and includes APA-formatted references to the

articles that have been compiled for a research assignment. Following each reference is a brief

description and an evaluation of the source. The purpose of an annotated bibliography is to benefit the

researcher and provide an overview of the content, relevance, and quality of the sources. For this

assignment, all sources need to be scholarly articles from scholarly peer-reviewed journals published

within the last 5 years.

Do not simply cut and paste the abstract as the annotation, as they are not the same. Abstracts are

summaries of a source, whereas annotations also include a brief analysis of the source’s fit for your

research, note the source’s author and why he/she should be considered an expert, and explain the

usefulness of the source for your research paper.

The APA format for an annotated bibliography is as follows:

Author Last Name, First Initial. Middle Initial. (Year). Name of journal article. Name of Journal,

Volume(Issue), Page Number(s).

A brief summary of the article.

Assess the article according to the focus of the research and provide criticisms.

Who is the author, and how are they qualified? Reflect on the source and how it fits into the topic

chosen to research. Is the source helpful? Too broad or too narrow? Explain how this research

will fit into your research paper.

Note: Your assignment will be checked for originality via the Turnitin plagiarism tool.
