An annotated bibliography is an excellent way to organize and evaluate the resources you've collected on your topic.
Each citation in an annotated bibliography is followed by a paragraph that is both descriptive and evaluative. Your annotation should give the reader a basic understanding of the significant arguments of the source and should include your opinion on the source's usefulness and/or relevance.
Note: an annotation is an original work created by you containing your own summary and value judgment of a source. It is not meant to be an abstract or summary of the source.
Evaluate your sources using the RADAR approach:
R | A | D | A | R |
---|---|---|---|---|
Rationale | Authority | Date | Accuracy | Relevance |
