* The first section includes a well-developed one to two-paragraph (about 100-150 words total) introduction to your topic that explains the importance of the topic and your interest (Kairos and exigence). Sources should be used to establish key ideas.
* The second section lists your best 5 sources in alphabetical order in MLA format. Following each works cited citation, a two-paragraph annotation is presented.
* The first paragraph of 75-100 words will summarize the information in the source.
* The second paragraph of 75-100 words will explain the rhetorical situation of the source (for what purpose was it originally written) and the source’s applicability to the writer’s project.
* The third section will present a continuing research plan including the types of sources the writer may still need to locate to answer questions regarding the topic. This section should be about 100-150 words.
Audience: The overview (Section 1) and research plan (Section 3) are an overview of your work and plan, which means 1st person use is appropriate. However, the annotated bibliography entries (Section 2) should be written for an academic or intellectual audience, which means that neither first person (I, me, my, and our) nor second person (you and your) pronouns should be used.
Length Requirements and Sources: The Annotated Bibliography should have exactly five (5) sources listed in alphabetical order with correct MLA citations. The sources must include at least one peer-reviewed source, and at least three sources from the PGCC databases. All research from outside sources must be given instructor approval.
Format: MLA formatting is required. Your finished assignment should be double spaced with an MLA heading in the upper left (name, instructor, course, date) and a title “Annotated Bibliography” centered between the heading and Section1 of the assignment. Use in-text citations with MLA style.
