Annotated Webliography (25% of final grade)

This assignment will help you evaluate sites that you find on the free web.

 

Before you start your paper, read the UMUC Library guidelines for evaluating web resources to help determine whether the contents are of high quality and acceptable for college-level academic research:http://www.umuc.edu/library/guides/web.shtml

 

Then, using a search engine of your choice (e.g., Google or Bing), find five websites that are acceptable for academic research. UMUC library databases (for example JSTOR or other journal databases), Wikipedia, History.com or any other encyclopedia or wiki-type site like about.com are NOT acceptable, sites that require a subscription are additionally NOT acceptable. You do not have to use the same topic as your annotated bibliography, but you can if you want, it is up to you. 

Complete the following for your annotated webliography:

Provide a complete citation (as you would include it in your bibliography) for the site, including the URL and your date of access. Note that the required style for this class is Chicago Manual of Style. For an example of what elements to include in your citation, go to http://www.umuc.edu/library/guides/chicago.shtml and click on Web Sites. You can also click on Course Resources, click on Webliography, and find examples of how to properly cite websites using the Chicago Manual of Style.

Use the evaluation criteria provided by UMUC Information and Library Services http://www.umuc.edu/library/guides/web.shtml#Evaluate to determine if the site is appropriate for college-level academic research.

A paragraph for each website (five total approximately two hundred fifty plus words each) in which you describe the contents of each website in detail, and why you think the site is acceptable for use in an academic research paper, using the information you collected from your evaluation of the site.

Sometimes people confuse a web address with being the same as a website. This is not the case. Articles from journals are NOT websites.

 

You should choose 1 group (women, laborers, farmers, believers, scientists and scholars, the middle class, the aristocracy, artisans, merchants, military people, entrepreneurs, religious authorities, heretics, artists, patients, builders and architects, physicians, musicians, entrepreneurs, etc.) or topic from the ancient world through the 20th century. For the ancient world, prehistory will certainly work, but beginning with the eras of Egypt or classical Greece and Rome will suffice.
