The order is a bit awkward

sounding. Consider switching these

two items to improve the flow.

The annotations should be indented

in. This will help the reader better

see when the next citation entry

starts.

It seems that you meant "even"

here. Consider reading your writing

carefully to catch minor errors like

this in your writing.

While what you have is great so far,

consider elaborating a bit in your

reflection of how you would use this

source in your essay. Consider

explaining how this will improve the

essay. Also, consider including an

assessment of the credibility of the

source in order to more critically

determine whether you should

incorporate this source into your

essay and to what extent you

should rely on it. Consider paying

special attention to any potential

biases that the source may have.

The entries should be in alphabetical order.

Consider reordering the entries.

Consider going further than just a

Assessing the credibility of your
