IWA Annotated Bibliography

The annotated bibliography for your IWA will be a running list of ALL of your annotated sources. You are required to annotate a minimum of 15 sources, but are welcome to exceed that amount. You should use either MLA or APA formatting. It should be alphabetized based on the first letter of the citation entry. The word count for each entry should be 100-200 words. DO NOT exceed 200 words per entry.

You are no longer required to “sort” your topic into lenses “officially”, but remember what you learned about lenses, and use that to guide your source selection.

Included for helping you keep track of your source types is a checklist. You can actually check the boxes and it will cross the source types off your list.

Requirements include:

• Three Journalistic (i.e. from a newspaper or magazine), Artistic, and/or Media-Based Sources (such as podcasts, youtube videos, documentaries, social media posts by important people in your area of study) (do NOT need to be peer reviewed, but you should be CERTAIN that they fully pass the RAVEN test for your topic)
• Four Historical Sources (can be peer reviewed and found within databases, published before 1990, or can be primary documents)
• Two sources that represent one side of the argument (must be peer reviewed, database sources)
• Two sources that represent the other side of the argument (must be peer reviewed, database sources)
• Four Sources that explore various solutions to the problem, including the solutions’ limitations, and implications to society (at least THREE of these should be peer reviewed)
