Writing Assignment: Annotated Bibliography (AB) Due Dates (by 11:59PM): Rubin AB entry: 1/30 AB Draft (3 entries): 2/25 OPTIONAL: AB Final Draft (5 entries): 3/ 10 AB Revised Draft: 3/17 Mechanics: 6 page minimum (including 5 AB entries and a Literature Review with CRQ), double-spaced, 12 point, 1” margins, MLA (or other) format Explanation Annotated Bibliography is a genre of writing in academia that works to show your awareness of what others have written about a topic. The work done in an AB, including introducing the authors with brief intellectual biographies; explicating the main claims and concepts; tracing the argument and its evidence; evaluating the source; and discussing its stakes and implications gives some context to the course reading you choose to research and situates the course reading into a research topic by indicating the intellectual conversations you are entering. The point of this assignment is to practice research skills but also to dig a little deeper into 4 of our readings using research. For this assignment:Writing Task 1. Compile an Annotated Bibliographyof five scholarly sources, including one entry for Gayle Rubin’s “Thinking Sex” and 4 more scholarly sources based on researching sources that are connected to one (the deep dive) or more of our course readings. See the next page for the specific AB entry format. · Sources · “Scholarly” means peer-reviewed articles from academic journals or chapters in books written by experts in a field and not wikis, encyclopedias, newspapers, popular magazines/media, blogs, websites, etc. (see the Library Guide on what constitutes a scholarly source). · “Connected” means that each of your researched, scholarly sources must be connection to a course reading in some way. You can either find a source that engages or discusses the particular critical essay or cultural text from the course calendar or you can do research on a topic or theme that is brought up in or similar to the course reading. Whatever you decide, you’ll explain the connection in your quote analysis. · “Deep Dive” means you may also include more than one researched source per course text. You can, for instance, research two sources on a critical essay and two on a cultural text or even include 4 sources that are all about one essay or text to give some in-depth engagement with one course reading. Alternatively, you may also include 4 sources on 4 different course texts. · Focus · If you’d like, you canfocus your research within a broad topic, on a field of knowledge, or on a really specific object of analysis within that topic. For example, you can produce an AB based on a specific topic (like racialized hypersexuality, the sex/gender/desire matrix, or a particular sexual stereotype) or a specific discipline (for instance, focus on the sociology of sex) or an interdisciplinary one that pursues a critical research question through multiple fields of knowledge (for instance, focused on how sociology, cult.

ENG 112 Research Project Annotated Bibliography=10% ([email protected]%ea.) Research Paper=15% Research Project Presentation=10% This assignment is intended to familiarize you with engaging academic research. Through researching a particular topic that is recent and examining it from multiple perspectives you will create a fresh perspective and original findings that you can share with your peers and our college community. • Consider context. Make sure that you are clear about your purpose and assess who your audience is and might be in the future. • Make sure that your topic is something that you’ll be interested in and curious about. If you know a great deal about the topic you will be less likely to explore all of the perspectives that are being explored. You are also less likely to be biased when approaching the topic if it is unfamiliar to you. You will have FOUR options for your paper. Options: 1. Choose a topic relevant to the themes in the stories that we have discussed in class. The topic must be current. However, try not to choose a topic that will have very few sources for you to research. SOME possible options include, but are not limited to: a. Power b. Faith c. Guilt d. Remorse e. Gender Roles f. Surveillance g. Identity h. Race i. Tradition j. Authority i. Examples for the above include: 1. An examination of how power has been viewed throughout history 2. A discussion about tradition and how local traditions can help to define a community or culture 3. A discussion about authority and how it can and/or should/should not apply https://learn.vccs.edu/bbcswebdav/pid-83699290-dt-content-ri…NG%20112%20Research%20project-Spring%202015%281%29.doc 4/8/16, 8:16 PM Page 1 of 4 when thinking about universalism versus cultural relativism 2.

What is the primary reason for Othello's jealousy? d. What makes Iago such a successful manipulator? 3. Write about overlapping issues in two or more of the texts that we read this semester.

TopicAs we move into more in-depth discussion of media literacy.docx

TakishaPeck109

Topic : As we move into more in-depth discussion of media literacy, we will continue to engage in a process of reading the media around us: CREATE AWARENESS, ASSESS, ANALYZE, EVALUATE, REFLECT COMMUNICATE, and ACT about media of all kinds. This includes print media (books, journal, newspapers, magazines, ads), visual media (art, films), and digital media (websites, databases, online magazines). This project will ask you to engage in the process to explore your use of the popular reference website, Wikipedia. To prepare for the written portion of the assignment, choose a subject about which you consider yourself knowledgeable. Find the Wikipedia entry on that subject and print it out. (It helps to pick out a subject that has a relatively short entry; this will make the rest of the project much more manageable.) Be sure to name the topic and provide the link to the Wikipedia page in your document. As you assess, evaluate, and analyze the article you’ve chosen, you will use this entry to follow a process of media criticism, as laid out below. PUT THE ANSWERS TO THESE QUESTIONS IN ESSAY FORMAT (not list format). Assessment Questions: Before you analyze your article (but after you decide on a topic), answer the following questions. Your answers will prime your brain for a more critical consideration of the article. Why is this person, event, invention (or whatever) of such significance that it merits inclusion in an encyclopedia? How would you break it down? What would the different sections be? What sort of images would you include in your article? What parts of the article might be potentially controversial? Why? Where would you go to find and verify information for your article? Evaluation: Paying close attention, taking notes, and researching the subject under study. How long is the entry? Does the length seem surprising or not? (Look up a couple of articles on similar topics to help you answer this question.) How is the entry divided into subtopics? List them. When was it last updated? See the very last page of the entry for this information. What information seems to be the most recent? How can you tell? What kind of visual information (photos, graphs, tables, etc.) is included? List visual elements and explain what each adds to the entry. Who are the experts cited in the body of the entry (if any)? List them. Analysis & Interpretation: Discovering and focusing on significant patterns that emerge from the description stage. In the interpretive stage, we try to determine the meanings of the patterns we have analyzed. The most difficult stage in criticism, interpretation demands an answer to the “So what?” question. What information in the article did you find the most surprising or enlightening? What information seems outdated or in need of updating? Are there aspects of the subject that seem incomplete? Look again at the selection of topics and subtopics and how these are organized. Which aspects of the subject are emphasized by this .

Checklist Do not use a standard essay format. Provide each componen.docx

bissacr

Checklist: Do not use a standard essay format. Provide each component clearly and distinctly. Two paragraphs comparing two selected documents. One thesis statement One discussion question Content Expectations: Step ONE: Identify the nature of the source material. Which readings are primary or secondary sources? Are they fictional works or do they present any evident bias? Step TWO: Choose TWO READINGS from the assigned documents to perform a compare/contrast analysis. Video material is not acceptable in this assignment. If you choose a primary and a secondary source, then think about how the primary source fits into the narrative/position of the secondary source. If you choose two primary sources, then compare how they represent different viewpoints or perspectives on important issues. If there is only one assigned reading, then extract two meaningful examples instead of comparisons. Step THREE: Draw TWO meaningful comparisons between the two documents that reveals important insight into the historical period/topic of the week. The comparison may be any similarity or difference, but should focus on explaining how it helps historians understand the past. Think about how and why things happened the way they did. Figure out what you think is the most significant SIMILARITY between the two passages. Consider the author's perspective (national origin, class, ideology etc) for each document. STEP FOUR: If these documents were the source material for your research project, what would your preliminary research question or thesis statement be? This should be no more than two sentences and cover the main idea that you would try to argue. Ex. Using the works of Robespierre and St. Just, this paper will argue that the violence of the French Revolution was created by their interpretation of the needs of the French nation rather than their philosophical beliefs. Be ambitious but with limits. Lay out a provable case that makes a strong a point, regardless of whether you are fully convinced that it is the case. You will be evaluated on the composition and effect of the ideas rather than the perfectness of the answer. Step FIVE: Create one discussion question that you can propose to the class during seminar. It should be a ‘why’ problem that poses an issue for debate rather than demanding a specific factual answer. Ex. ‘Why didn’t Frankenstein name the Creature?” instead of “Did Frankenstein name the Creature?” Do NOT use quotations or paraphrase the document. You may refer to specific passages but do not summarize the document. “ex. Where Thomas Paine talked about hereditary right, he was focused on the legitimacy of an absolute monarchy.” The paper should consist entirely of your own ideas and opinions about the sources using a compare/contrast approach. Therefore, citations should never be required. If you do quote/paraphrase then include citations. redaing 1- 1- https://sourcebooks.fordham.edu/mod/sieyes.asp 2 readings are below c.

This document provides guidance on writing a journal article review. It explains that a journal article review critiques an academic article for a knowledgeable reader in the same field. It recommends skimming the article initially, then thoroughly reading and taking notes while considering how the article sets its objectives, presents concepts and arguments, uses evidence and methodology, and contributes to the literature. The review should introduce the article, briefly summarize its contents and argument, critically discuss 2-3 key issues, and finally evaluate the article's overall contribution to the topic. Checklists are provided to ensure identification of the article, objective summarization of its argument, discussion of key issues with evidence and reasoning, and a concluding evaluation.

Writing A Lit Review

Claudia Cárdenas

A literature review examines research that has been conducted in a particular field of study.
