© TAFE NSW 2019 Higher Education Aliza Salvador Writing Guide: Annotated Bibliography What is an annotated bibliography? An annotated bibliography is a critical review of the literature search that you have conducted on a particular topic. Similar to a reference list, it comprises of an alphabetical list of a range of information sources (e.g. journal articles, book chapters, etc.), however it also includes a commentary (or annotation) of each source. Benefits of writing an annotated bibliography: An annotated bibliography clearly showcases the breadth and depth of the research you have done on a topic. An annotated bibliography is a helpful ‘first step’ when writing a literature review, essay, report, etc. as it involves the collation and organisation of your research into one document. An annotated bibliography assists you in critiquing the relevance of sources. An annotated bibliography encourages deeper engagement with the sources you have collected. What to include in each annotation: 1. The full APA reference of the source 2. The main aim(s)/purpose of the research (i.e. what did the study aim to find?) 3. Detail the research methods used (i.e. how was the study conducted?) 4. Identify the context of the study (i.e. where was the research done?) and the participants of the study (i.e. who was involved in the study?) 5. Discuss the main research findings or the main argument(s) of the source 6. Summarise the conclusions made by the author(s) 7. Comment the credibility or reliability of the text – note any limitations and/or issues of generalisations (i.e. identify any weaknesses of the study) 8. Provide your own reflection (i.e. comment on the helpfulness/relevance of the source for your essay/literature review/report/etc.) (This can be written in first-person language) Sample annotation (Each element is coordinated with the colours above): Ganz, J. B., Hong, E. R., & Goodwyn, F. D. Effectiveness of the PECS Phase III app and choice between the app and traditional PECS among preschoolers with ASD. Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 7(1), 973-983. doi: 10.1016/j.rasd.2013.04.003. Ganz, Hong & Goodwyn (2013) aim to explore the efficacy of a tablet-computer-based Picture Exchange Communication System (PECS) application compared to that of a traditional PECS that uses a physical communication book. Three children with autism between 3-4 years old participated in the eight-week summer clinic session and qualitative © TAFE NSW 2019 Higher Education Aliza Salvador information was gained via assessments. Results indicate that all three participants demonstrated considerable improvement utilising the PECS application during and prior to explicit app instruction. A single-case multiple baseline design presented that all participants demonstrated above-chance level mastery of the application. Further, two participants seemed to show preference for the tablet-based PECS application and one participant showed preference for the traditional PECS communication booklet. The study, however, concluded that there was no consistency in the preference demonstrated and therefore does not regard one over the other. Limitations of this study included time restraints, conducting the study in unnatural, research conditions and the small participant sample size. These limitations therefore affected the validity of the results of the study. I found this article helpful as it provided practical implications on choosing an AAC system targeted towards families and service providers of children requiring AAC were also provided. As such, this will form the basis of my ‘recommendations’ section of my report. Helpful tips when writing an annotated bibliography: Remember to be concise – you are writing a summary of each source. A paragraph is usually enough (unless stated otherwise by your academic). With the first point in mind, your annotation should assist the reader(s) in developing a solid understanding of each source without having to go back and read the actual source themselves. An annotation should not be merely based on the abstract of a paper (it is clear when students have not read the paper in its entirety) Write in full sentences. There is no need to cross reference or provide in-text references, as you are annotating each source separately. Don’t forget to arrange the sources in your annotated bibliography alphabetically. This is merely a guide. The conventions of writing an annotated bibliography may vary depending on the assessment, your teacher, or the subject (so please check with your teachers first!) Revisit the APA referencing guide.
