Homework
The annotated bibliography is a very useful research tool in that it
summarizes the information found in each of your research paper
sources, and relates how the source will connect to ideas in your
paper. Be sure to review the section “Developing an Annotated
Bibliography” (pp. 472-474) of our textbook before writing your
bibliography. In Doc Sharing, you’ll also find the document format
for the annotated bibliography. You may find that other sources will
be added to your list, but at this point in your research process, you
should have at least five sources to include in your bibliography.

is worth 100 points. It should contain five sources with annotations of
two paragraphs each. One paragraph will need to summarize the
information found in each source, and the second paragraph will be a
connection to ideas in the research paper from each source.

statement; problem section, first reason; problem section, second
reason; first solution; second solutions; and call to action.
•Slides should be clear (free of grammar and spelling errors), concise,
and consistent.
•Speaker Notes must be included to take the place of oral delivery.
These notes give you the opportunity to elaborate on the points listed
on your slides. They should support the content on the slides, rather
than repeat it. To create Speaker Notes:

“Normal View.”
oAt the bottom of the screen, under each slide, there is a box that
reads “Click here to add notes.” This is the area in which you should
type and add your Speaker Notes.
