Teaching the Annotated Bibliography
This book informs instructors and librarians about the history, aims, and pedagogical uses of the annotated bibliography.
A companion to the authors' Writing the Annotated Bibliography, this text enables instructors to better understand the annotated bibliography not only as a tool for research and composition but also as a valuable pedagogical tool. It provides practical guidance along with assignments, lesson plans, assessment rubrics, and other tools for using annotated bibliographies in effective and nuanced ways. It also contains annotated bibliography samples in APA, MLA, and Chicago styles.
This practical book is of great use to instructors of composition and research skills, librarians, curriculum designers, writing center directors, and education professionals.
