Bibliographies are sometimes called &#8220;references&#8221; or &#8220;works cited&#8221; depending on the style format you are using. [You should use the Chicago or Turabian styled format at the end of your project.] A bibliography usually only includes the bibliographic information (i.e., the author, title, publisher, etc.).&#8221; An annotated bibliography includes a summary and\/or evaluation of each of the sources. Your annotations should summarize each of your scholarly sources. They should be relevant to your topic.<\/span><br style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><br style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">For your annotated bibliography, answer the following questions &#8211; Who is the author? What are the author&#8217;s credentials? Is the source credible? Is it scholarly? What characteristics make the source credible\/scholarly? What are the main arguments? What is the point of this book or article? What topics are covered? If someone asked what this article\/book is about, what would you say? Also address how YOU will use the source in your assignment.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0.5em 0px 1em; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">The length of your annotations should be one paragraph for each of your sources for a total of at least four sources. (Please note that more sources do not necessarily equate to more points. Be sure to submit well-written, relevant, quality, scholarly, correctly-formatted sources.) A paragraph should be 5-8 sentences long. Your paragraph should paraphrase or summarize your sources in your own words. Do not copy and paste phrases, sentences, or whole paragraphs from sources or other papers. Plagiarized bibliographies will receive a grade of zero (F).<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0.5em 0px 1em; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">Submit your project proposal for the final project here as a Word, Rich Text, or PDF file.<\/span><br style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><br style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">\u2022 Be sure to use at least four references. (Please note that submitting more sources does not automatically guarantee a higher grade. All annotations and entries must be of high quality and must follow the appropriate format.)<\/span><br style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><br style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">\u2022 One of the references should be an assigned reading for this class.<\/span><br style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><br style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">\u2022 If using more than four sources, limit the use of encyclopedia entries.
