Assignment 2: Annotated Bibliography TOPIC: Divorce
The purpose of this assignment is for students to:
1) to research a topic in Sociology that is of interest to them;
2) continue to master research using the online library resources; and
3) to develop information literacy skills.
Students will develop an Annotated Bibliography based on a topic for the Final Project. A
minimum of 5 peer-reviewed sources and 5 popular open-web (peer-reviewed and credible
sources; e.g., government) sources will need to be used in the bibliography.
**An annotated bibliography is a list of citations to books, articles, and documents. Each
citation is followed by a brief descriptive and evaluative paragraph, the annotation (please
do not copy and paste the abstracts). The information must be in your own words (at least
80%; no more than 20% should be quoted).
The purpose of the annotation is to inform the reader of the relevance and quality of the
sources cited.
The completed assignment will include:
1) The topic that you chose to investigate for this Final Project. (e.g. bullying, racism,
corporal punishment, etc.)
2) List of search terms you used in your searches (i.e. bullying, racism in the US, etc.)
3) Annotated entries for a minimum of 5 peer-reviewed articles and 5 popular and/or open-
web sources (see below for what should be included in each entry)

reflective of the sociological perspective (3-5 sentences)
