For this week’s Critical Thinking assignment you should revise and expand on your bibliography from last week by adding three additional sources. This will bring the total number of sources in your bibliography to six. At least one of this week’s sources need to be peer-reviewed scholarly articles. To find scholarly articles, check the “Peer-Reviewed” box when searching the library databases. The third new source can be an additional peer-reviewed scholarly article, or a credible source of a different type.

You should include revised annotations for the sources included in your Module 3 Critical Thinking assignment, based on the feedback you received from your instructor. If any of those sources were deemed unacceptable, you need to replace them with different sources. 

Please note, your success on this assignment depends, in part, on how well you incorporate the feedback from last week’s assignment. Make sure you review your instructor’s feedback carefully, and ask them if you have any questions.

For each source in your bibliography you should include the following:

A reference citation in APA format. The sources should be listed in alphabetical order.
A brief summary and overview of the source, focusing on the arguments and conclusions made by the author or authors.
A brief discussion of the credibility and reliability of the source.
A brief discussion of the relevance of the source to your project and its relationship to other sources you have found.

By providing detailed annotations now, you will make your work later in the project easier. For example, by identifying connections between sources now you can begin to synthesize the information in a way that will help you develop effective arguments in the final project. The annotations for each source should be one to two paragraphs long.

For more information about annotated bibliographies, including an example that you should follow for your own bibliography, visit the CSU Global Writing Center’s page on Annotated BibliographiesLinks to an external site..

Writing should not be an entirely solitary activity. Good writers share their work with others to get feedback and improve their writing. You should strongly consider submitting a draft of your assignment to the Smarthinking tutors (accessed via your Student Portal or the left navigation menu of this course) and then using the feedback to revise your paper. 

Requirements:

Length: Six sources with annotations, one to two paragraphs per annotation. Three of these sources should be new this week. The overall paper should include title page, but you do not need to include a references page.
In general you should use third person and neutral pronouns in academic writing. Attribute arguments and claims to authors, not articles because articles are inanimate objects.
Cite at least six credible sources for this assignment. At least three of your sources need to be from peer-reviewed, scholarly journal articles. The CSU Global Library is an excellent place to search for credible, scholarly sources.
Your paper must be formatted according to the CSU Global Writing Center APA guidelinesLinks to an external site.
You should model your annotated bibliography after the sample bibliography available from the CSU Global Writing Center: Sample Annotated BibliographyLinks to an external site..
