Homework 10/29

An annotated bibliography is a list of books or articles with notes, which includes a summary of the sources. An annotated bibliography consists of three major parts, which are a citation, a summary and an annotation. With the citation, it just consists of about one or two lines, depending on which citation the professor wants. The summary is no more than a few sentences, while the annotation is the rest of the annotated bibliography. This is when I include most of my information about the topic. I would say how and why the annotated bibliography is important and how it relates and ties into my research topic. I believe the reason why you want us to write an annotated bibliography is because as the guy in the video said, it makes us do our research early and we learn how to do research selectively and carefully. And of course, we learn about how to correctly research topics. It helps us learn about our topic further and the research that has already been done. Another thing it helps with is preparing us for a research project. If we do this, we have an idea of where we want to go and more details on our research project.
