WIP Annotated Bibliography

What is a Running Annotated Bibliography? A Works Cited page that includes summary and analysis of each cited source. Running Annotated Bibliography: The same assignment, except we continue adding sources to it over the course of the project.

Types of Sources, Semester One Due 10/28: Website Due 11/4: Periodical Due 11/18: Academic Journal Due 12/2: Book or E-Book All sources will be about your assigned issue in your assigned country.

I know what the others are, but… What is an Academic Journal? Articles written by experts in a field for other experts in that field Einstein (1879-1955) & Marie Curie (1867-1934). I have no idea if they ever reviewed each other’s work, but they lived at the same time and Einstein admired her, they attended conferences and took hiking trips together.  http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/11/07/10-marie-curie-facts_n_4018373.html Photo credits: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Albert_Einstein_in_popular_culture; http://www.fanpop.com/clubs/women-in-history/images/29204107/title/marie-curie-photo

All Sources Must Be Reliable! Authority: WHO created the source and are they an expert on my topic? Bias: WHY did they create it? What’s their purpose? Currency: WHEN did they create it? How recent does it need to be for my topic? NOTE: Ann Bib page specifically prohibits certain websites, wikipedia, about.com, etc.—talk about that

What does the page look like? Times New Roman, 12 point Font, 1 inch Margins HEADING: Name, Teacher Name, Class & Period, Date (Day Mon. Year) in top LEFT corner of page one Your last name and page number in top RIGHT corner of all pages after page one ALPHABETICAL order SPACING: Citation is double spaced, with a hanging indent Annotation is single spaced, and left justified Between source entries, there should be one “return button” space Let’s make a template… HAVE STUDENTS CREATE A TEMPLATE

Now that I have my page set up, what do I do for each source? Create an MLA citation for your source. Underneath your citation, type a paragraph that: 1. SUMMARIZES the source (Should include a direct, cited quotation from source) 2. ANALYZES the validity of the source (what makes this source believable/reliable?) 3. REFLECTS upon the source’s use/value to your project.

What exactly do the Annotations look like? Shh…don’t tell anyone, but there is a template in the packet p. 16-17… …just follow it directly!

A couple tips about that template… “Genre of source” means… “Info about author” means… What level of detail is needed? How do we do a parenthetical citation?

(Parenthetical Citations) Author’s last name and page number: “The government continues to restrict freedom of speech” (Zonta 183).

OR…if there’s no author… Use page title/article title and page number “Protester grievances focused on police brutality” (“Demonstrations Erupt in Cairo” A5).

If there’s no page #, leave it out If there’s no page #, leave it out. Some teachers will ask you to include the paragraph number: According to The World Factbook, “Living conditions for the average Egyptian remain poor” (“Egypt”).
