Post-Annotated Bibliography
It’s important to stress that this research often includes a lot of excesses simply choosing the first hit is often not the right match for a research project. Students should write about the choices they made in selecting their sources and reflect on how these sources contribute to their developing projects.
Students should identify connections between sources. Students can address these questions: How do the sources talk to each other? How do they agree or disagree or qualify each other’s discussions? Reflect on the gaps that seem to exist between sources and identify the outlying sources that no longer work in their developing projects in writing.
