Question: An Annotated Bibliography organizes your research by way of APA citations and a short paragraph about each source. For this Assignment, you will create an Annotated Bibliography for four sources related to an argument for change. One of the sources should address an opposing viewpoint or misconception related to your topic. Your instructor will provide insightful feedback on the sources you find so you can determine whether to use them in the Unit 8 Assignment, a persuasive research essay.

The following aspects are required for your Annotated Bibliography Assignment:

• Title page in APA manuscript format.

• Your revised thesis statement for an argument for change in your community or workplace.

• Four primary and secondary sources; one source should be a periodical or ebook, preferably from the Library.

• Sources that would be appropriate are as follows:

• Book, ebook, article, or a chapter from book or ebook

• Periodical (e.g., newspaper, magazine, journal article)

• Internet source (e.g., blog, organization website, article from Internet site)

• Video or audio source (e.g., documentary, video blog, TED Talks , podcast)

• A primary source in which the authors of the content are the primary researchers (the ones who conducted research), e.g., a government report, case study, or speech

• At least one source should address an opposing viewpoint or misconception.

• APA citation for each source (this is the information you would normally include on a references page).

• Annotation for each source, which must include each of the following in a full paragraph:

• Brief summary of the source (no direct quotes from the source) and a parenthetical citation after the summary, e.g., (Smith, 2014)

• Evaluation of the source's credibility, including the author's credentials and the verifiability of the source's information; this should include where you found the source Library, Google search engine, government website, etc.)

• Discussion about the source's usefulness to your argument for change in your community or workplace

• All writing must be in Standard American English.

• Use APA manuscript format throughout the Assignment.
