Instructions for reading response 3
For this assignment, you will create a short-annotated bibliography to share some of your research findings.
An annotated bibliography is a common academic tool for citing, summarizing, and evaluating what you read. The name can sound intimidating, but it’s simply a way to engage with new information you’re learning and might use in your own writing.
Instructions: Complete bibliography entries for two potential essay sources, each containing:
A Works Cited entry
A summary of the text’s main ideas
An explanation of how, specifically, this text might be useful to you in supporting Essay 3 claims
Before completing this exercise, have you…
Read all Course Content and looked at the provided examples of annotated bibliographies?
Carefully read at least two sources you think may be useful in supporting your argument?
Ideally, each text provides different information or types of evidence for your argument. It will not be useful to include multiple articles that prove pretty much the same thing. Instead, consider how different “voices” in your essay can help you examine a complex topic from multiple angles or with different types of ethos and logos.
