This document provides instructions for an annotated bibliography assignment on the topic of the brain and consciousness. Students are asked to summarize at least two scholarly sources on the topic in 2-3 paragraphs each. The summaries should include a description of the content and relevance to the topic, as well as a critical analysis of the sources. Students are then asked to write an introduction with a clear thesis statement and a concluding summary paragraph that outlines questions, directions for further research, thoughts on the final paper, and any potential problems. The annotated bibliography must be 3-5 double-spaced pages not including the title or references pages.
