Step 1: Narrowing your literature search focus:

Skim the titles and abstracts of at least 8 articles first. While you skim, look out for articles that help you understand the issue and that provide the following kinds of information:

• Examples of evidence/statistics on the issue's scope, scale, severity, and complexity
• Examples of existing/attempted solutions and their level of success
• Examples of potential Interested/Affected Parties (IAP groups) from the literature

Now focus on 5-7 of these sources that are most relevant to the criteria listed above:

• You must include at least 1 review or synthesis paper on the issue among these references
• Review/Synthesis papers are scholarly writings that analyze and evaluate the research from multiple sources on a specific topic, combining the key findings to create a comprehensive overview.
• You must include 3 original research studies among these references that provide specific evidence and statistics
• A study is a discreet research publication that examines a single instance or example of your research topic.

Step 2: Once you have narrowed your sources to 5-7 that seem most relevant, create an annotated bibliography:

• An annotation is a 100 to 150 word summary that may include:
• the article's key findings and takeaways
• notable methodologies
• the article's relevance to your topic/argument
• Create a full APA citation and an example of an APA in-text citation for each source.
