(Outline And Annotated Bibliography)
An outline and annotated bibliography are essential components for organizing and researching academic or professional projects. The outline provides a structured framework, delineating the main topics and subtopics to be addressed in the project. It serves as a roadmap, guiding the writer through the logical progression of ideas. On the other hand, an annotated bibliography compiles a list of relevant sources accompanied by concise summaries or evaluations. These annotations help the writer understand the significance, credibility, and relevance of each source to their research topic. Together, they form a robust foundation for effective writing and analysis.
In the final week of this course, you will design an intervention to address a specific problem you have identified utilizing social psychological insight. In Week 2, you began this process by crafting a topic statement. This week, you will continue to develop your thoughts by organizing them in the form of an outline, including an annotated bibliography that summarizes your research thus far. (For additional guidance, review the resources for Outlining and creating an Annotated Bibliography, available through the Ashford Writing Center.). Note that the purpose of this assignment, like the previous, is formative in nature. This is your chance to gain valuable feedback on the work you have completed thus far, as well as guidance as you move forward. To take full advantage of this opportunity, be sure you submit a substantive product. Your outline and annotated bibliography should encompass the following:
