Assignment Overview
Your PASSport includes an Annotated Bibliography due Week 8. It will include a record of 10 reference list citations on a topic of your choosing. Below each entry, you will provide an “annotation” - or brief summary - of the main ideas from the text. This week, begin work on your bibliography by conducting research in the APU Library databases.
Submit a draft Annotated Bibliography of at least four sources. These will give you some practice and allow you to get feedback from your instructor before having to do the full assignment in Week 7.
