This assignment is a stepping stone to begin your research towards your final paper. I HIGHLY suggest you look at the requirements for TEAM ASSIGNMENT #3 each time you complete an assignment to try and capture as much as you can in your work. This will help enrich your response a great deal. You should also save many of the references you use for this assignment for Team Assignment #2 as this will likely save you time for the annotated biblography!

ASSIGNMENT 2: 

The APA explains that an annotated bibliography is essentially a summation of citations to books, articles, Websites, and scholarly documents. Each citation is followed by a short (usually about 150 words) paragraph, “the annotation”. 

The purpose of completing an annotated bibliography is to gather a comprehensive list of like-kind resources that help an individual or group towards their collective research body. This is inching the group towards their final project. 

For this assignment, you will need to collect twelve (12)crediblesources. This includes peer review journal articles, books, news articles (not blogs entries), books, or government documents that contribute to the completion of your research paper (Team Assignment #3). In order to gain full credit for this assignment, you must do the following:

• Cite each entry correctly in APA format. To receive full credit, the citation must be flawless. 
• Provide a substantive well-written description of the entry that is 150-200 words each. The annotated entry must be flawless of grammar errors and contextually relevant to the paper topic to receive full credit.
