Annotated Bibliography

For this assignment, you will create an annotated bibliography using all of the resources you have used throughout the term. You may want to look back at your previous assignments for this information. Place all of the references in APA format. Beneath each reference, write an annotation. You can also use this document as you progress through the program.

• Summary of the purpose of the article/study and its key findings

• Evaluation of the article/study

• Relevance to your research study
