One of the issues regarding any type of research, especially in the environmental sciences, is the credibility of the sources used. By forcing you to evaluate each of your potential sources carefully, the annotated bibliography helps you determine if in fact the source you chose is credible and helps you determine how relevant it is to your topic and understand the topic better, which will help you develop your presentation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0.5em 0px 1em; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">For this project, you will assess five sources to include:<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0.5em 0px 1em; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">1) a complete citation for each source,<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0.5em 0px 1em; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">2) a summary of each source, and<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0.5em 0px 1em; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">3) an evaluation of each source in the context of the book you selected for class.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0.5em 0px 1em; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><strong style=\"font-weight: bold; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">Five sources are required for this assignment<\/strong><em style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><span style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">&nbsp;<\/span>(i.e., you are to write an annotation for each source)<\/em>.<strong style=\"font-weight: bold; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0.5em 0px 1em; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><strong style=\"font-weight: bold; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">Use this TEMPLATE to summarize and evaluate each of your five sources.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<ol style=\"margin-top: 1em; margin-right: 0px; margin-left: 0px; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">\n<li style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><strong style=\"font-weight: bold; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">Citation<\/strong>:<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p style=\"margin: 0.5em 0px 1em; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">Written in APA reference list format.
