Annotated bibliographies are very
much similar to a works cited page with a few adjustments. An annotated bibliography
is a summary of every book that was used while researching a topic. Included are
the bibliographies of each book better known as works cited. So if you put
annotated which means notes or summary of, with bibliography, you will get the
summary of a book! Annotated bibliographies gives a quick overlay on what your
topic is about and exactly what details will be covered in your research. Some
annotated bibliographies are published, allowing students like me to research
one that relates to my topic.
The main reason you may want us to
learn about this is so that we do not procrastinate on finding creditable
sources. Writing an annotated bibliography forces use to actually read and
comprehend each source that we use, which takes a lot more time. Along with
that, I am sure you will lecture us on this and we may have to write an
annotated bibliography either as a class assignment or for our group research.
Finally, annotated bibliographies will help me analyze my sources. While doing
research, I may feel as if it is creditable and will provide the best
information towards my research, but as I analyze the source, I may see that it
is not.
I think that knowing how to make an annotated biography will make writing this paper easy and keep it in order. I like that we are doing this, because now I know where to start and how to keep it flowing. Making a summaries will better help me understand the books that I will be using.
ReplyDeleteI really agree because annotated bibliography will make research and actually writing the paper much easier for the writer and the reader. Even though annotated bibliographies are lengthy and can take a lot of time and force you to complete assignment ahead of time, they are really just to help you write a better paper.
