Annotated Webliography
There is a great deal of information available on the web and you can do a lot of research from your computer. However, not everything on the web is acceptable for academic research. 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: https://www.umuc.edu/library/guides/web.shtml
Then, using a search engine of your choice (e.g., Google or Bing), find six websites that are acceptable for academic research. UMUC library databases (for example JSTOR or other journal databases), Wikipedia or any other encyclopedia or wiki-type site like about.com are NOT acceptable, sites that require a subscription are additionally NOT acceptable. Think outside of the box on this assignment. For example British Movietone News has uploaded almost 48,000 videos of their newsreels covering the period 1929 to the present onto YouTube. Many governments, including the U.S. National Archives and British Archives, have started to digitize their holdings. Also, newspapers such as New York Times have archives going back to the 19th century. Remember, the news is the first draft of history.
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 https://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 https://www.umuc.edu/library/guides/web.shtml#Evaluate to determine if the site is appropriate for college-level academic research.
Write a paragraph for each website (six total) 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.
