Sources: Four sources related to your research question, including at least two from
scholarly journal articles. All four sources should be high-quality sources that you can
use in your research project.
Outcomes you should achieve by completing this assignment
The annotated bibliography contributes to the research project by helping you collect
and analyze your sources. The outcomes for this assignment are listed below,
with the associated course outcomes in parentheses:
· Identify valid and reliable sources that can be used in the composition of a research
· essay
· Explain the nature of selected sources and their relevance of sources to the research
· essay
· Set up an annotated bibliography in APA format

Topic
The annotated bibliography is part of your research project, which examines a current

bibliography builds on your work from the first few weeks of class selecting an
appropriate topic and then developing a more focused research question.
Indicate your research question at the top of your annotated bibliography, just below
the title.
