Module 2 Assignment 1 Annotated Bibliography Part 1

Q In Module 1, you submitted your topic for your final paper. In this module, you should submit the first three sources in the form of an annotated bibliography which will bring you closer to developing the framework for your final paper. In the next module, you will submit three more sources. While you may or may not use these sources when you develop the final paper, it will provide you with practice researching and applying sources. The module learning outcome addressed in this activity is: • Develop an annotated bibliography for the final research paper. (CO #5) Annotated bibliographies are a critical part of the research process. The bibliography is a list of all the articles, books, chapters, or other documents you have read during the research portion of your project. They are arranged in alphabetical order according to the author’s last name. The annotations are brief descriptions and evaluations of the individual articles, books, chapters, or documents that you read. As such, annotated bibliographies provide readers with a clear sense of your sources and the necessary information to decide whether or not they want to explore your sources on their own. • Submit the first three (3) sources you plan to use for this portion of the annotated bibliography assignment. • Each annotation should not be more than 150 words, or approximately one paragraph. An annotated bibliography requires you to summarize complex articles in a few succinct lines. Do not just cut and paste the abstract; the paragraph YOU write in the annotated bibliography should show HOW this source relates to the topic you selected and builds the argument required by your topic selection as indicated in your discussion posting. Ensure your response paper is free of grammatical errors. Use APA style for all writing assignments. You may want to visit the Excelsior College Online Writing Lab (Links to an external site.) for more information on this. For assistance with your writing projects, visit Excelsior College Library. It is important to cite your sources properly when you are writing a research paper and using someone else’s ideas. By citing sources, you will avoid plagiarism and give credit to the originator of an idea. Additionally, I recommend Smarthinking, a free tutorial service available to you from your course toolbar. If you elect to use this service, please be sure to submit your work to the service early in the week or you may not receive feedback in time to make an on-time submission of this assignment. Use the EC Library resources for research assistance and to properly cite your work: • Military Leadership Research Guide (Links to an external site.) • National Security Research Guide (Links to an external site.) • Plagiarism & Copyright (Links to an external site.) • Excelsior Library Writing Help (Links to an external site.) • APA Citation Help (Links to an external site.) • Excelsior College Online Writing Lab (OWL) (Links to an external site.) This assignment is due by the end of this module. You have until Sunday at 11:59 p.m. Eastern time to submit your work via the assignment drop box. Compose your work in a .doc or .docx file type using a word processor (such as Microsoft Word, etc.) and save it frequently to your computer.
