Annotated Bibliography

The First annotated citation will be on the Topic of the “Legal and Ethical Dimensions of the Use of Information.”

The second two of these citations will be full Text articles or books obtained through Databases of professional books and journals available at, or online (The effects of watching television for young children are detrimental to language development. )

The Last Two citations will be obtained through the Internet using any search engines. (Increased opportunities to experience (play with) many objects as a young child is beneficial to concept (and hence) language development.)

These citations will be reported in a APA format as much as possible. Included in the annotation portion of each citation will be a paragraph, which briefly (like in a few sentences) summarizes the article (you can usually get this information from the abstract), and answers to the following questions. If the answer is not available, you simply state that fact:

1. What is the background (authority) of the author (viz., degree and type of education, affiliated institution, history of research in the area as perhaps reflected by past articles in the bibliography)?
2. Who is the intended audience (i.e., professionals, laypersons, women etc.)?
3. How does this work compare or contrast with others you may have cited or be aware of? If you are not aware of any others, simply state that as the situation.
4. What is the scope and relevance of this work to the selected topic (hypothesis)? What the heck do I mean by that? Well, is it highly or only vaguely relevant to the hypothesis; and is it of minor or major importance.
