Create a complete Annotated Bibliography for 5 academic scholarly sources

Annotated Bibliography (Five Annotations Required)- Week 4 (75 points)
Create a complete Annotated Bibliography for 5 academic scholarly sources, which include your introduction and thesis, publication details, and the annotation (see below for examples of each component). A total of 5 academic-scholarly sources are required for completion of your final research project.

Scholarship means that:

the author has a Ph.D. or other terminal degree,
the work appears in a multi-volumed, peer-reviewed journal,
and has ample references at the end.
Good annotations:

capture publication details,
offer a student introduction and thesis, and
a detailed reading of the source, covering the following:
Offers the student\’s introduction and thesis to the best extent s/he knows it at this point in time,
Summarizes key points, and
identifies key terms (using quotation marks, and citing a page in parentheses);
Locates controversies or \”problems\” raised by the articles;
States whether the student agrees or disagrees and gives reasons;
Locates one or two quotations to be used in the final research project; and
Evaluates the ways in which this article is important and has helped the student to focus his/her understanding.

Good annotations make for excellent papers. You are required to annotate five academic scholarly resources in Week 4. A scholarly resource is written by an academic scholar, holding a Ph.D. or other terminal degree, is published in a multi-volume, peer-reviewed journal, and has ample references of its own. Successful annotations begin with your introduction (to the best extent you know it at that point in time), capture publication details, briefly summarize a text, locate key terms, find controversies to analyze and evaluate, and assist in the creation of new knowledge.
