Annotated Bibliography

the annotated bibliographies have be five articles on the same topic within corrections.

• student shall locate and read five (5) peer-reviewed journal articles from the TAMUCT online library databases, related to the general topic: COURTS.

• The topic of courts are very broad – the student should identify a more specific area within each general topic and make that the focus for the annotated bibliography. I am including some examples below – these are just a few of the many areas the student could focus on

Courts (e.g., judges, prosecutors, defense attorneys, juries, sentencing)

• Once the student has read the articles, he/she will summarize them, succinctly, in one page each (no more than one page, no less than ¾ of a page). Thus, each annotated bibliography should not exceed 5 pages. The student will not receive credit for articles that are not peer-reviewed. These are to be summaries, not critiques of the articles.
