For this Assignment, you will research a topic that resonates with you in order to expand your knowledge in promoting meaningful learning experiences in supportive environments.
To Prepare:

Basics of Annotated Bibliographies
An annotated bibliography is a combination of the word’s “annotation” and “bibliography.” An annotation is a set of notes, comments, or critiques.
A bibliography is list of references that helps a reader identify sources of information. An annotated bibliography is a list of references that not only identifies the sources of information but also includes information such as a summary, a critique or analysis, and an application of those sources’ information.
Review our resources on the following pages for more information about each component of an annotated bibliography. As always, read the instructions and any examples in your assignment carefully; some of what follows might not be required in your particular course.
