What is an annotated bibliography?• An annotated bibliography just like a normal bibliography, but with a few sentences under each bibliography entry. An annotated bibliography is a great way to analyze sources and make them useful.
• Your sentences should summarize the source content and evaluate the source.
• You should briefly address these issues in your annotations: A summary of information presented in the source. How the source contributed to your understanding of the project goals. What the strengths or weaknesses of the source are and what bias the source may
have.
PRESENTATION: Group prepares and shares proposal requirements above and cooperatively makes a 10-15 minute “pitch” to convince a panel of adults to support their proposal.
