Create an annotated bibliography consisting of 10 peer-reviewed sources.  An annotated bibliography is an alphabetical list of complete citations (in APA format) to the literature you have researched on your topic(topic is listed below in red), each citation accompanied by a brief paragraph explaining the contents of each entry.  Each annotation should not summarize the article or book, nor should it list the article's content; rather.

It should briefly explain…..

1) the author's main point or argument

2) the author's method or approach

3) the place of the piece in the literature as a whole (e.g., does the author agree with other scholars?). 

The Annotated Bibliography should provide a solid overview of the existing state of the discussion to the topic.   

RESEARCH TOPIC IS:
