Annotated Bibliography on Effects of Tobacco

Once you have drafted an excellent research question, you will begin to find your sources in preparation for Essay 3: The Research Essay. The Annotated Bibliography is a document in MLA format that identifies your chosen sources associated with your research topic, summarizes and explains their significance to your research and other sources.

o This assignment requires a 5-7 sentence, single-spaced annotation following each entry, accompanied by your Research Question.
o You will be required to use four to six secondary sources, including at least 2 articles from library databases and at least ONE course essay. (Gay, Baldwin, Hill, Kolbert or Daramola)

For more information on the Annotated Bibliography, look at Purdue OWL: Annotated Bibliographies.

HOW TO BEGIN: Using your Research Question as a guide, research the scholarly conversation surrounding the issue, moment, figure, or phenomenon connected to the course essay you’ve chosen. Find, evaluate, summarize, and synthesize at least four secondary sources that will allow you to respond to your Research Question in Essay 3. Provide an annotation for each source.

*At least two sources must be articles found on the library databases. At least one of your sources must be a course essay. Note that the sources must speak to or provide useful lenses for discussing the issue, moment, figure, or phenomenon highlighted by your Research Question.

FORMAT: This assignment is an MLA annotated bibliography. Open your bibliography with your Research Question, then
1. Write a full, properly formatted citation for each source, including the course essay you’ve chosen.
2. Order the entries alphabetically.
3. Write an annotation for each source, including the course essay.

ANNOTATIONS: Below each citation, provide a single-spaced paragraph of approximately 5-7 sentences that
1. Summarizes the author’s main claim (if the claim is implicit, make it explicit).
2. Details the concepts, arguments, or information that this source contributes to the conversation surrounding the issue, moment, figure, or phenomenon from your Research Question.
3. Notes a relationship with at least one other source in the bibliography. This relationship might reveal agreement or tension between the sources’ claims and methods.
