Final Project Bibliography Checklist

Prior to beginning work on this assignment, read Chapter 5: Writing the Research Proposal and Chapter 8: Qualitative Research Methods from your textbook Practical Research: Planning and Design. Additionally, refer to the final project description for your Research Proposal Project in Week 6 to ensure that the articles you are selecting are appropriate for this final project.

Select five articles that you might be considering using in your final project Research Proposal Project. The articles should not be older than five years and must be scholarly, peer-reviewed articles. The Writing Center resource Choosing the Best Sources and Evidence (Links to an external site.) may be helpful when selecting your articles. Summarize the articles in one paragraph each, then refer to the Week 2 Checklist  download, and complete checklist questions for each of the five articles.

Your submission must list the APA reference above each of the article summaries like you would see in an annotated bibliography. Here is a resource to demonstrate the layout of an Annotated Bibliography (Links to an external site.):
