OVERVIEW<\/p>\n

Creating an annotated bibliography is a great way to strengthen your research skills. In part two<\/div>\n
of the three-part project for the course, you will locate scholarly sources related to the topic you<\/div>\n
chose for the American History Opposing Viewpoints Project: Summary Assignment, learn<\/div>\n
how to format different types of sources according to your writing style guidelines, and assess<\/div>\n
each source in a written annotation.<\/div>\n
INSTRUCTIONS<\/div>\n
Based on the topic you chose for the American History Opposing Viewpoints Project:<\/div>\n
Summary Assignment, conduct a search for:<\/div>\n
1. A scholarly book written by an academic in the field of history. Scholarly books should<\/div>\n
be located from the Jerry Falwell Library (avoid selecting children\u2019s books!).<\/div>\n
2. A peer-reviewed journal article focused on your topic. Peer-reviewed journal articles<\/div>\n
should be located from the Jerry Falwell Library (avoid selecting book reviews!).<\/div>\n
3. A scholarly website – look for sites with URLs that end in .edu (university), .gov<\/div>\n
(government), or .org (organization), as these are deemed more reliable for academic<\/div>\n
research. (Avoid websites with URLs that end in \u201c.com,\u201d as they are commercial<\/div>\n
websites and not appropriate for academic research at the college level).<\/div>\n
*As you search for sources, keep in mind that a key component of this assignment is to locate<\/div>\n
sources that include opposing viewpoints related to the topic you chose. Please note, the website<\/div>\n
articles previously assigned during Module 3 should not be used for this paper.<\/div>\n
Once you have located the three required sources, format a reference for each. For help with<\/div>\n
formatting citations, click on \u201cWriting Style Guides\u201d located on the main menu of our Canvas<\/div>\n
course. This will take you to the Online Writing Center where you can reference the style guide<\/div>\n
for your specific discipline.<\/div>\n
Next, underneath each reference, write an annotation (an assessment of the source) of at least 75<\/div>\n
words. Each annotation should include a brief summary of the content of the source, the<\/div>\n
credentials of the author or source, and an evaluation of the usefulness of the source.<\/div>\n
You should follow the American History Opposing Viewpoints Project: Annotated<\/div>\n
Bibliography Example provided to format your paper. Type your paper using 12 pt. Times New<\/div>\n
Roman font and proofread carefully. Save your paper as a Microsoft Word document and upload<\/div>\n
it through the appropriate submission site.<\/div>\n
