In my high school engineering class we were taught to use the American Psychological Association's citation style, because it is the most widely recognized scientific citation style.

Here is a link to my properly formatted annotated bibliography in Google Docs.
I looked at Jessica and Ayras' annotated bibliographies. Ayra's bibliography was in APA style like mine, so the citations and formatting were very similar. Jessica's bibliography was in MLA style. APA style places more emphasis on the date of the work, while MLA is more focused on the author. My annotations were more brief than theirs, which I thin is more of a personal style preference.
Mr. Blocker,
ReplyDeleteYour citation style is consistent to the versions used by professionals within your desired field. Based on your APA citation link, all of your scholarly, media, and general sources seem to be formatted and cited correctly. However, some of your citations are missing, such as your media sources. But, your biographic citations are formatted correctly as well as your basic citations. My only question to you is your placement of dates. Your link gives examples that of APA that you used in your post. but through my sources I have seen examples where the date in regards to your format is placed in the beginning of the citation or at the end. Does your format vary among careers? Otherwise, everything seems well cited.
Good Job!
Assigned to write a bibliography? Whatever your reasons why you should write one, you've got to know how to write it well. Likely unfamiliar to many, writing an annotated bibliography comes up at least once as part of every student's school assignments. It can be requested as both a standalone task or as a standalone assignment. See more annotated bibliography apa
