Websites for Career Projects

Use these websites for useful information on careers.

Each career will probably have an organization or association devoted to it, and those organizations usually have websites that provide career information.  For example, the American Medical Association (AMA), an association for physicians/medical doctors, has its own website, which has information about careers, education, and medical specialization.

Annotated Bibliography/Works Cited and Consulted Information

Creating an Annotated Bibliography using NoodleTools

 

WHAT IS AN ANNOTATED BIBLIOGRAPHY?

An Annotated Bibliography is an organized list of sources (like a Works Cited page). Each source is followed by a brief note or “annotation.” Annotations do the following in a short paragraph - one or two sentences per topic:

Summarize/Describe: Write about the content and focus of the book or article; include the author, genre, and title;

Evaluate/Analyze: Write about the source’s methods, conclusions, or reliability; what does the author say about the subject and what do you think about it?

Reflect: Write about the source’s usefulness to your research...how will you (or will you) use this source?

USING NOODLETOOLS FOR ANNOTATED BIBLIOGRAPHY

Click into each source in your project and scroll down to the annotation box. Write the paragraph below for EACH SOURCE and save it. When you are finished, export all sources to google docs. See THIS TUTORIAL for help - Thanks, Ms. McFerrin!
