For this assignment you will complete an Annotated Bibliography and an Outline.
An annotated bibliography is a list of sources and includes current APA-formatted references to the peer-reviewed articles (all which must have been found through the online Library – I will give you) or (xxxx – I will give you ) that you have compiled for a research assignment. Following each reference is a brief description, summary, and evaluation of the source (see the requirements below in the instruction section). The purpose of an annotated bibliography is to benefit the researcher and provide the content, relevance, and quality of the sources.
An outline will be provided at the end of the Annotated bibliography section. It will provide the structure and citation sources for the literature review and will be written in full sentences with APA formatted headings.
