Concept Paper: Annotated
Bibliography Assignment Instructions
Overview
You will
prepare an annotated bibliography in current APA format consisting of at least
30 peer-reviewed academic sources relevant to your proposed dissertation
research. This is not a literature review and should not be prepared as a
literature review. Instead, it should be prepared according to the Concept
Paper: Annotated Bibliography Example provided on the assignment page.
Instructions
·
You should include no
fewer than 30 academic sources. Most sources should be fewer than five years
old, though every field relies on seminal works that may be older. For works
cited that are older than five years, please ensure that your annotations
explain and justify their inclusion.
·
The annotated
bibliography should be prepared in current APA format according to the template
linked above.
·
Each annotation should
be at least 50, but not more than 250 words in length, and:
o should state the central thesis of the source being
cited; and
o should explain how the source’s author(s) support their
thesis; and
o should evaluate the relevance or applicability of the
source to your research interest.
Note: Your assignment will be checked
for originality via the Turnitin plagiarism tool.
