Annotated Bibliography

annotated bibliography. Attached will be instructions AS WELL as a SAMPLE to help guide you through the process of creating these annotations. In the instructions page

it says that you will need to write up a MINIMUM of 5 annotations equivalent to 1000-1200 words. HOWEVER, during this time, I will only need you to write 3 (because

this will just be a draft!). The working thesis for the assignment has been changed. The direction the assignment is going to is different than what you previously

wrote on the proposal. You will come to realize this after reading the new “Working thesis” which will be provided on the instructions page as well. Please read the

instructions carefully and ultimately use the “SAMPLE” as your maine guide to format AND construct your annotations. Each annotation will need to be between 120-140

words AND follow all the guidelines set forth on the instructions page! Please be aware that the annotated bibliography should not reflect the previous proposal

because the proposal received a “C” letter grade because it failed to show a deeper meaning and sounded more like a report. I encourage you to read the instructions,

new thesis, remarks AND sample on the instructions section so you can get an idea of the direction the assignment is going. Use big words and make your writing

creative! If you

Annotated Bibliography Assignment
Worth 20% of Final Grade
An annotated bibliography is a list of citations to books, book chapters, articles, and other sources. Each
citation is followed by a brief descriptive and evaluative
paragraph: the annotation. The purpose of the
annotation is to inform the reader of the content, relevance, accuracy, and quality of the sources cited.
Annotations are not mere summaries. They are descriptive, like summaries, but they are also critical:
Th
ey discuss the author’s point of view, clarity, authority, etc.
For this assignment, you will do annotations of a minimum of FIVE sources in a minimum of 1000 words,
maximum 1200. Your bibliography will include two journal articles, one book chapter, one n
ewspaper
article, and one online source (e.g. a blog, webpage, or forum). Annotations are usually about 150 words,
but for this assignment, each annotation (not including the citation) must be in a minimum of 120 words.
Each annotation must include at leas
t one
effective summative quotation
and one
effective evaluative
quotation.
The Annotated Bibliography must follow the
latest MLA style of formatting and
documentation.
The grade for this assignment will be based on one of the annotations in your bibliogra
phy + the
annotation of a newspaper article you will handwrite in class the day you submit your Annotated
Bibliography.
As this annotated bibliography is part of the process of writing your final research paper, you will
provide a tentative thesis stateme
nt at the top of your paper.
My new Thesis: Kuwaiti youth body building frenzy does not reflect a motivation to live up to a
national model of masculinity (as an American culture) but rather a new manifestation of an old
emphasis on looking imma
culate.
Remarks: I have already provided you with a scholarly journal called (Physical Stature and national
identity). You will annotate this journal first. For the second and third annotations you can use
blogs/articles/ect.
But what references am I se
arching for? You will be searching for articles and references that relate to
the “new thesis” and relate to why Kuwaitis are suddenly getting buff? Is it a culture thing that people
from Kuwait take real good care of themselves e.g.
–
to look pristine? Am
ericans do it because it might
be tied with masculinity or that it is the norm to look like a “hunk” and live the American dream. But
why do people from Kuwait use steroids to look buff. Why are they pressured to do it now? Try to
look for refenrences that
pertain to this idea.
