Assessment 1 – Annotated Bibliography

Instructions and Marking Criteria

Overview
An annotated bibliography is a list of research source (i.e., a bibliography) on a particular topic of research, accompanied by a brief commentary on each entry. The commentary provides a summary and evaluation of the entry relative to the topic of research. It can be used as a tool for researchers to gain an overview of the literature background at the early stage of their research projects.

Your Task
Your task is to create an annotated bibliography on your chosen research question. In your submission, you should:

  • 1. State and classify your research question; and
  • 2. List at least five (5) bibliographic items, each with its annotation.

(You can list more than five items if you want.) Regardless of how many items you list, you will be marked on the overall quality of your bibliography. However, if you list n<5 items, your marks will be scaled by n/5.

Peer Review

Part 1: Use the following questions to guide your review of your partner’s essay. Write your name (reviewer’s name) and your peer’s name (writer’s name) in a Google Doc/Word Doc. Your comments will help your partner gain a new perspective that will inform the reflection and revision processes.

 Part 2: You should complete a self-review with the same questions.

Part 3: Compare PARTS 1 and 2. What did you notice that your peers didn’t notice and vice versa? Look at each point (1-7) for this exercise. How will you resolve each difference you notice?

 

Turn in all parts on BB.

Parts 1 & 2: (Provide complete-sentence responses.)

  1. What is the thesis of the critical review? Does the thesis appear in the introduction? Does your partner present an evaluative thesis, as he or she should? Does the thesis avoid personal feeling or belief? What reasons does your partner provide in the thesis? (There should be some reasons.)

Below are two example thesis statements, one is effective and another is weak.

  1. an effective, strong thesis: Although “N” site has made steps in a positive direction, such as in the new tools to interact more with other users now and to keep some data private, “N” site has not kept up with important technological advances and innovative changes to social media, such as developing a user-friendly phone app and limiting the content that floods the newsfeed; therefore, “N” site falls below average, making it a site users should avoid.
  2. an ineffective, weak thesis: “L” site has great features because people can post whatever they want to their profile, but I don’t think people should use it because it is not fun and is the most boring.

 

  1. Are the criteria listed one at a time in their own paragraph? What are the criteria?

 

  1. Comment on the criteria. Has your partner presented objective criteria? To what extent do the criteria appear to be unbiased? To what extent does your partner reveal his/her bias? (Remember NOT to rely on personal taste or preference.)

 

  1. Do the paragraphs discussing the criteria and evaluation begin, as they should, with the identification and definition of the given criterion? (Refer to the sample paragraph with my revisions in the previous deadline’s folder if you need clarity on what exactly this looks like.)

 

  1. How does the writer show the points, rather than just tell them? What are the specific examples/pieces of evidence the writer uses to support the thesis? List multiple examples.

 

  1. Is the review convincing? Why or why not?

 

  1. Offer a suggestion for how your partner can improve his/her evaluation.

Writing Question

Wordle is a popular word game that can be played on the web. Players get 6 tries to guess a 5-letter word of the day. With each guess, players can see how many letters guessed are present in the word and how many of those letters are in the correct spot.

After each game, players are provided with their statistics, which are depicted in the graphs you see below. The graphs depict frequencies of correct guesses. For example, if a player gets the word correct in 3 tries, the total in the 3 column increases by 1; similarly, if a player takes all 6 tries to get the word, the 6 column increases by 1.

Over time, then, the Wordle application tracks the number of guesses it took for a player to correctly guess the word of the day, With that information in mind, look at the 4 player distributions and answer the following questions.
● Which player is the best of the 4? What information from the distributions allows you to make that determination?
● Which player is the worst of the 4? What information from the distributions allows you to make that determination?
● Are any of the distributions normal? Are any of them positively skewed? Negatively skewed? Which ones and how do you know?
● If you were to really dig in, what descriptive statistics would you be able to calculate and report by looking at these distributions?

You may earn up to 5 points for a complete, accurate, and thoughtful response to all 4questions. You should write approximately 2 sentences per item.
