HWK 3: Rhetorical Analysis Essay Annotated Bibliography
An annotated bibliography is a curated list of sources to build research. It includes a brief summary of each source and your own evaluation of its currency, relevance, authority, accuracy, and purpose (CRAAP). It is a tool that helps you keep an organized and thoughtful record of the research process and relevant information about the topic. You will put together an annotated bibliography of four sources in preparation for the Rhetorical Analysis Essay. See samples in EW p. 318-329. In addition to the text you are analyzing for the essay, your bibliography will include: – One mainstream and accredited news/magazine article, – One scholarly/academic “peer reviewed” article, – One legitimate web-based multimedia or blog-style article. Your annotated bibliography paragraphs must contain a topic sentence, clear evidence from the reading, and coherent sentences on a topic. It will use transitions affectively to cohere the overall piece together. Each entry in the annotated bibliography must provide the complete citation information for the source in MLA or APA format followed by a paragraph that includes 1) a summary of the source, 2) your critical assessment of the source, and 3) how you will use the source in your assignment. We will workshop annotated bibliographies in class and you will have an opportunity to improve your assignment before submission. Submit your statement as date specified in the syllabus.
