Paper Goals: This is an annotated bibliography for a masters level social work course. There

was a minimum of four sources. Writing is a weak subject for myself an I am

looking for corrections if needed. I've referenced to APA manuals to help me

however I am very unsure of my work.

Proofing Summary:

Hello, Tiffany! My name is Lyndsey C.

Strengths:

I’ve read your study of papers on the topic of ADHD.

Your choice of references is apt. Your arguments are convincing. You have no connected the sources to your requirements.

Suggestions:

First, I would like to state that you begin an annotated bibliography with a paragraph that states what you are planning to write about.

To continue with your specific requests for feedback: Please follow the APA format for your references. Please give complete

information for each reference. Ex: Author's name (last name, first name initial)

Date in parentheses (use n.d. for “no date” if the publication date is not available) - Include all information that the author makes

available. You may follow this format if the complete date is given: (Year, Month Date).

Title in italics

Publication information (city, country: publisher) (use n.p for “no place” if the city is not listed; use the state abbreviation instead of the

country if the city is in one of the 50 states of the United States; use n.p. for “no publisher” if the publisher is not listed.)

For web entries, entries should include the following:

Author’s name (last name, first name initial) – If the author is unknown, begin instead with the title of the article.

Date in parentheses

Title

Website in italics – What is the name of the website?

doi or Retrieved from URL – full URL, not the homepage URL

These elements are separated by periods. Here are examples:

Myers, D. (1995). Psychology. New York, NY: Worth Publishers.

Creating an annotated bibliography calls for the application of a variety of intellectual skills: concise exposition, succinct analysis, and

informed library research.

First, locate and record citations to books, periodicals, and documents that may contain useful information and ideas on your topic.

Briefly examine and review the actual items. Then choose those works that provide a variety of perspectives on your topic.

Cite the book, article, or document using the appropriate style.

Write a concise annotation that summarizes the central theme and scope of the book or article. Include one or more sentences that

(a) evaluate the authority or background of the author, (b) comment on the intended audience, (c) compare or contrast this work with

another you have cited, or (d) explain how this work illuminates your bibliography topic.

Write a concise annotation that summarizes the central theme and scope of the book or article. Include one or more sentences that,

study and comment on the authority or background of the author, compare or contrast this work with others you have researched, and

explain how this work connects to your topic.

Please name the work as well as the date it was created and the name of the author.

Please make sure the citations are correct and complete to help your readers refer to the source.

Name the work being reviewed as well as the date it was created and the name of the author/creator.

Describe the main argument or purpose of the work.

Explain the context in which the work was created. This could include the social or political context, the place of the work in a creative

or academic tradition, or the relationship between the work and the creator’s life experience.

Have a concluding sentence that signposts what your evaluation of the work will be. For instance, it may indicate whether it is a

positive, negative, or mixed evaluation. And finally how you will connect it to your research.

Please keep the elements in a sentence

consistent, avoiding any unnecessary

changes in tense, voice, mood, person,

number, and discourse. Such

unnecessary changes, or "shifts," may

make reading difficult and make the

meaning confusing.

A run-on is a sentence in which two or

more independent clauses (i.e., complete

sentences) are joined without an

appropriate punctuation or conjunction.

For example: It is nearly half past five we

cannot reach town before dark.

Wordy sentences can obscure

your meaning. Aim for clear,

direct sentences so readers

can follow your ideas.

Substitute appositives (words

that mean the same thing as

the word to which they refer) for

clauses beginning with who or

which. Wordy sentences use

too many useless words that

clutter writing. Good writing is

simple and direct; it uses the

simplest word possible that

conveys the same meaning.

Wordiness takes away from this clarity.

Please Structure your sentence to

make it more complete. A correct

sentence signals completeness.
