Teacher Stress/Burnout

The first stages of the research writing process involve topic selection, formulation of a research question, preliminary research, and the development of a working thesis statement. Now you will begin identifying and evaluating sources to determine how effectively they can support your argument. If needed, the “Topic Ideas” web link below can be used for selecting your research topic. For this task, you will create an annotated bibliography by finding 8-10 sources for your research paper, listing the sources in APA-formatted references, and providing an annotation for each source. Each annotation should offer a summary of the source, an evaluation of its author’s or publisher’s credibility, and an assessment of its relevance to your topic. A. Compose an appropriate, arguable thesis statement that previews two to four main points and that you plan to use in your research paper. B. Create an annotated bibliography of eight to ten appropriate, credible sources that you plan to use in your research paper. 1. Provide a full, APA-formatted reference citation for the 8–10 sources. 2. Provide an annotation (suggested length of 150 words) for each of the 8–10 sources by doing the following: a. Summarize the information presented in the source. b. Analyze the credibility of the author of the source or of the publication (e.g. journal, publisher, or website), if no author is present. c. Analyze the relevance of the source to your chosen research topic.
