Assignment: Annotated Bibliography

Create a document in Microsoft Word that is formatted as an annotated bibliography. On the document:

State the format style you are using: Chicago, APA, MLA, or Bluebook.

The annotated bibliography can easily be built from the source search worksheet used in week 3 of this course and additional sources you have selected.

List at least four different types of credible sources (not just four websites) you will use in your final career interest project. Two of these sources should be scholarly and from the APUS library.

Provide the essential information for each source including author name(s) title of the source and other details required by your chosen citation style.

For each source, write an original paragraph of five to eight  sentences summarizing the source information (annotations) evaluating the sources and explaining why the source could be relevant to your project.

Write the summary in your own words rather than providing a copy of the abstract.

After submitting the assignment, review your similarity score and make sure your score is less than 20%. If it is higher than 20%, expand on your summary and explanation then submit the revision.

Information about creating an annotated bibliography and what one looks like can be found in the APUS library.

Remember: Select ONE citation method you want to use based on your academic degree program. Return to Lesson 4 if you need to see the list of disciplines and their corresponding citation styles. The majority of students will probably use APA, but MLA, but Chicago/Turabian may also be used.
