Structuring an Annotated Bibliography
1. Summary:
Summarize the main idea(s) of the source (2 to 4 sentences)
1) What was the aim of the research?
2) What are the main arguments or research findings?
3) What are the methodologies, scope, evidence, results and/or conclusions?
2. Assessment:
1) Assess and evaluate the source (1 or 2 sentences)
a) How does it compare with other sources in your bibliography?
b) Is this information reliable? Is the evidence strong enough to lead to the stated
conclusions?
c) How does the discussion contribute to the scholarly debate on the topic?
2) Reflect on its usefulness to your research (1 or 2 sentences)
a) Was this source helpful to you? How can you use it?
b) Any research gap or future research direction you would suggest?
c) Has it changed how you think about your topic?
Your Tasks (55 points):
1. Provide the research question you plan on addressing in your final paper. This can be the
question you included in the Research Question Assignment or an updated question based
on initial feedback. (5 points)
2. For at least 5 scholarly articles relevant to your research question:
1) Provide the full reference for each of your five articles. (5 points)
2) Summarize each article in one paragraph of approximately 150 words. (4 pts per article
for 20 points)
3. In a second paragraph of approximately 150-250 words, evaluate how this article helps
address your research question (does it provide key background information? empirical
evidence to answer all parts of your research question or a specific sub-area of your
question?). Make sure you describe the specific information relevant to your research
questions and the basis for that information in the article (e.g., what evidence did they use
to support their findings or statements). (5 points per article for 25 pts)
Basic Requirements:
1. Your assignment should be typed, and use 12 pt Times font (or similar), double-spaced.
2. Make sure your name and student number are on your assignment.
3. You do not need a cover page.
4. Do not use direct quotes. Marks will be deducted if you use direct quotes.
5. Please follow APA style. See here for appropriate style here. (you only need to follow
APA style for references, not the rest of your assignment format)
Here is the requirements for the Annotated Bibliography that is based on former essay i attached.
And also here is comment from former esssayTeaching Assistance to help you make a better one for the Annotated Bibliography : “
You need to craft a proper research question. It should include a specific species, timeframe, area, and scope. Your question “focus on current environment change impact and bears response” is very vague and provides no specifics.
You needed to specify which article you are discussing within the assignment. You also need to use proper APA citation styles for the bibliography.
It was unclear what the research question for the paper is. You need to be more specific and explicitly point to what the article authors were asking.
You mention “field observations” and “samples” but do not provide any further descriptions or details. This is unclear and vague.
You discuss climate change as the biggest threat but then talk about other aspects of bear-human conflicts. It is unclear to me why you think the paper was published. No connection to gaps in literature, applying theories in new areas, etc.
Your conclusion discussion is also vague and is difficult to understand due to the lack of paragraph breaks. Be specific about what the findings for the paper were.
The relevance to your research question is again vague. You provide discussion about the implications of bears and human activities but do not connect to your question explicitly. Furthermore, if you revise your question to be more specific, the relevance would be more apparent.
Ultimately, you need to revise your research question and provide explicit details about what you wish to study. Your assignment is vague and would greatly benefit from more paragraph breaks, with each paragraph focused on answering 1 prompt. You needed to provide more explicit details and explain the article in greater detail so the audience can understand the article without having read it. Lastly, you needed to properly cite the article and explicitly state which source you would be discussing.”
