WHAT IS AN ANNOTATED BIBLIOGRAPHY?

An annotated bibliography is a list of your sources for your research paper.

The source/citation must be in correct MLA format (9th edition. Below each citation, you will include the following:
Summary: What is the main argument of the source? What topics are covered? If someone were to ask you what the article, book, etc. is about, what would you say? Does your entry both summarize the source without including minutia?
Assessment/Analysis: Is it a useful source for your prospective project? How does it compare with other sources in your bibliography? Is the information reliable? Is this source biased or objective? What is the goal of this source?
Reflection: Was this source helpful to you? How does it help you shape your argument? How can you use this source in your research project? Has it changed how you think about your topic?
The sources must be in alphabetical order.
The paper must be in correct essay format. This includes:

correct heading: student’s name, instructor’s name, course and date

Following all instruction for submitting assignments, complete the following:

Research the following two statements, find current events that exemplify these issues, and provide a brief review of the laws and how they are being handled.

1. Some environmental scholars have argued that courts should extend the public trust doctrine to protect environmental resources other than tidelands and navigable waterways. Do you agree? If courts were to expand the reach of the doctrine, how should they decide what additional resources to protect?

2. What are the policy justifications for regulating all wetlands and endangered species at the federal level? If an endangered frog species is found only in the middle of Nebraska, why should the federal government decide whether and how to protect the frog?

Digital Portfolio task:
Compile together the research and writing tasks you completed as part of the module in response to the Essay task (i.e.: ‘Research and write an essay which investigates the topic of the on-screen body’ – details below). There should be 7 completed tasks – see the guidelines below.
At the end of your Portfolio, write a short reflection which answers the question: what do these tasks reveal to you about the purpose and practice of academic writing? This reflection should be 500 words long.
Digital Portfolio guidelines:
1. The 7 tasks which should be included in the Digital Portfolio are:
i. Brainstorming ideas: a list of ideas you had in response to the Essay task. Task length: no more than 1 side of A4
ii. Initial research and forming a research question: an annotated list of the scholarship you researched, why you looked at these particular sources and how they helped you. You should also include evidence of how you crafted a research question (e.g. different drafts of your chosen question). Task length: no more than 2 sides of A4
iii. Literature review: a list of the additional scholarship you researched and a commentary of how such research helped progress your research. Task length: no more than 2 sides of A4.
iv. Finding the central argument: details of your working central argument and a reflection of how this signals an intervention into existing scholarship. Task length: no more than 1 side of A4.
v. Planning and structure: an outline of your initial plan/structure for the essay. Task length: no more than 1 side of A4.
vi. Introduction draft: a copy of the first draft of your introduction. Task length: no more than 3 sides of A4.
