annotated bibliography

I do understand the challenges of balancing family, work and school.   I took a quick look at your document and see that you have not followed  the template I provided?  

This template ensures that all required content is clearly and consistently provided for a reader.    Please edit and resubmit following the exact format/sentence structure.

In paragraph format (without the questions), provide the following information using 250 words or less.  Use past tense when discussing the research process and findings.    

There are no citations in an annotated bibliography.

Researcher last name (year) examined, evaluated,  investigated, explored, studied, etc  what topic for what purpose?   (one sentence)

What was the  gap in the research  that the study addressed - meaning what was still unknown or understood about this topic based on previous research? AND why is it important to examine this gap (two sentences)

(Do not use the words the unknown, gap or why it is important…. Just state the information)

The participants included-  list the number of individuals  (and if noted both genders, age range in parentheses after number of individuals)   (one sentence) **Example -  The participants included 100 individuals (66 male, 34 female, age range 18 - 44 years)

How was the data collected?   (two -three sentences depending on methodology)

How was the data analyzed?  (one -two sentences)

What were the findings?  (two- three sentences)

What are the implications?   (two - three sentences)  Do not use the word Implication -  just state how the findings are applied outside of the research setting to help others. Example:   Results added new information to the field, extended previous findings, additional research needed. Findings can be used to help others in what way - create interventions, psychoeducation programs, treatment protocols, inform policy makers, inform insurance providers, etc

 

*Finally, note in one concise sentence, how the results or the findings provide support for  subtheme X (state the subtheme name) the study is aligned with  (which is a helpful reminder for you when reviewing multiple studies).  You will only remind the reader at the end of each study of the subtheme in this assignment, not when you move the content to the capstone template

 

Let me know if you have any questions. 

When I look at your summaries you have not followed the template or included the required content in the sentence structure provided.  If you see  (two - three sentences) this means provide that number of sentences for the noted content. You have also not included all required content.  Please use the template as a check list to ensure all required content in the correct sentence amounts is included. 

The annotated bibliographies are the foundation of your paper and are written in the exact format provided to all required content is clearly and consistently provided for a reader.  You will past them into the capstone template AS IS as you begin to build your paper.

Please send Two revised summaries for review.  Be sure to remove all comments (not just turn off the view)  

Hope this makes better sense!
