Each annotation should be between 100–150 words.*Do not use an article that is more than 5–7 years old unless it is considered foundational in the field.*Abstracts are the purely descriptive summaries often found at the beginning of scholarly journal articles or in periodical indexes. Annotations are descriptive and critical; they expose the author’s point of view, clarity, and appropriateness of expression and authority.*Write a brief description that summarizes the central theme of the material (in your own words, do not copy or paraphrase the Abstract).Evaluate the credibility of the source, comment on the intended audience, compare or contrast this work with other sources that you have referenced, and explain how this work relates to your topic.*Abstracts are the purely descriptive summaries often found at the beginning of scholarly journal articles or in periodical indexes.
