M6A1 Final Project Annotated Bibliography

M6A1 Final Project Annotated Bibliography

Q During Module 4, you proposed a topic for your Final Project, which explains the research you have gathered from academic sources and your approach to solving the problem you see in the workplace for your final project. During Module 6, you will set the stage for your final project by providing a preliminary annotated bibliography on your approach to solving the problem you posed during Module 4. This activity aligns with module outcome 2. Content Requirements: List and evaluate at least 6 academically oriented resources. Please use this 4-step model provided by the Excelsior College Online Writing Lab (OWL) (Links to an external site.) to create an annotated bibliography entry for each of the 6 academically oriented sources you have selected. • Cite the source using APA style. • Give a brief summary of the information in the source. • Give a brief evaluation of the quality of the source’s information. • Give a brief evaluation of whether the source is useful for the purpose of the project. These sources may include class materials, academically oriented websites, or Excelsior College Library books or articles from peer-reviewed journals. Strive for a balance of different types of sources. Refer to the OWL materials on Evaluating Online Sources (Links to an external site.) to determine if a website is suitable for academic work. Your final bibliography may continue to evolve between Module 6 and Module 8. This course uses the American Psychological Association (APA) format for scholarly writing. References and citations must adhere to the proper format for all written work presented including essays, discussion postings, and essay exams. Online tips for using APA style may be found at the Purdue Online Writing Lab. Your research should be documented by citing one or more credible sources such as the course readings and videos, scholarly articles and books, or educational websites. Wikipedia and any similar online reference sites where the content may be authored by anyone are not considered credible sources for scholarly writing. To assist you in your research, the OWL and the Excelsior Library has the following tutorials and links for you to use: • Starting your Research (Links to an external site.) • Find Answers 24/7 (Links to an external site.) • Research Strategies (Links to an external site.) • Research Tips (Links to an external site.) • Research Questions (Links to an external site.) • The Research Process (Links to an external site.)

This means that you should only submit your assignments to the dropbox below. Please do not submit your assignment directly to Turnitin.com. Once submitted, your assignment will be evaluated by Turnitin® automatically. You will be able to view an Originality Report within minutes of your first submission that will show how much of your work has been identified as similar to other sources such as websites, textbooks, or other student papers. Use your Originality Report as a learning tool to identify areas of your assignment that you may not have cited appropriately. You may resubmit your assignment through this dropbox as many times as you need to check to see if you have made improvements, until the due date of the assignment. However, once you have made your first submission, you will need to wait 24 hours after each subsequent submission to receive a new Originality Report. Plan accordingly as you draft your assignment. Once the due date has passed, your assignment submission will be considered final.
