Annotated Bibliography: Choose Your Own Adventure
For your final assignment, you will compile a short annotated bibliography of 2 peer-reviewed academic journal articles and 2 policy or data reports on any of the topics discussed in the materials for Module 5 for a total of 4 annotated bibliography entries. These articles and reports do not need to all be on the same subject within the larger topic you choose. For example, you might choose to conduct your research on hate / bias crimes and find a report on bias crime laws across the United States and a journal article on bias crime victims. The topics from which you can choose are:
#MeToo Movement
Bias / Hate Crimes
CSI Effect
Fatal Police Shootings
Human Trafficking
School-to-Prison Pipeline
Terrorism
Violence Against College Students
Annotated bibliographies help researchers to organize the information on a specific topic, take notes for literature reviews, and also assist others in understanding what research is available on a specific topic. An annotated bibliography presents the appropriate citation for each source along with a brief summary (e.g. for a research article, an entry should be approximately 250 words). In addition to identifying appropriate sources and developing a short summary for each, your annotated bibliography should have a 250-word reflection that discusses and provides a general overview of your thoughts on the topic you choose. Points will be subtracted for poorly written entries, entries that do not fit the required criteria, citations that are not properly formatted, and typographic or grammatical errors. Plagiarism, the unattributed use of someone else’s work, will result in a failing grade (e.g. copying and pasting the abstract of the articles you found).
