After each source citation, you should annotate the source in one well-developed paragraph that provides
the following information, in the following order:
–an indication of the source type and a several-line summary that describes (in your own words) the
source’s thesis and purpose
–a several-line assessment of the source’s quality and credibility
–a reflection upon the specific ways in which the source is likely to be useful to you in your final paper
Instructions:
Select 3-4 sources that are relevant to your research topic and need to put down an annotated bibliography that
summarizes and evaluates each source. this assignment, you should use sources that you found by
searching the GMU Libraries’ databases. (Of course, in your final research paper, you are allowed and
encouraged to use a variety of types of sourcesbooks, newspapers, scholarly journal articles, personal
interviews, etc.as appropriate for your topic and potential audiences, including at least one source that
is scholarly. But this “mini-bibliography” is a “stepping-stone” assignment that calls for you to focus on
searching for materials via GMU Libraries’ databases.)
Remember that you are not simply seeking sources that are in agreement with your position (or tentative
position) in regard to your research question(s). Your sources should provide a variety of perspectives,
including ones that challenge your own ideas and explore the nuances of your topic. Sources coming
from perspectives that challenge your views will help you understand, acknowledge, and ultimately
respond to counterarguments.
