Your citation for this assignment (and each citation for the annotated bibliography) needs the following:
1) a paragraph of summary (150-200 words) that explains ALL of the main points of your scholarly source. The summary should be objective, not use loaded language, be all in your own words and sentence structure (no direct quotes from the source), and cited in the appropriate format (MLA or APA). YES: even though the summary is in your own words, you must still cite where you’re drawing from the source for the ideas present in the summary!
2) a paragraph that evaluates the source (100-150 words) for credibility. This includes making sure that the author is an expert in their field of study, that the publication is peer-reviewed or otherwise shows academic rigor, that the information is not obsolete, etc.
3) a short statement (one or two sentences) that assesses how you will use this source in your project. Will it be part of your background section? Argument section? Serve as a counterargument? Not be used at all? (Yes, this is allowed.)
