Paper Instructions

You will write an annotated bibliography (summary and assessment) of two articles related to the concept of grief. The annotated bibliography of each article should be two to three paragraphs long. You should follow these suggestions related to summarizing and assessing articles:

Summarize: Some annotations merely summarize the source. What are the main arguments? What is the point of this book or article? what topics are covered? if someone asked what this article is about what would you say? 

Assess: Is it a useful source? How does it support the focus of your paper? I the information reliable? is this source biased or objective?   

You need to write your annotated bibliography in your own words. Do not use the abstract of an article as your annotated bibliography.

The articles you select must be at a graduate level. They must be from academic/professional level journals. You cannot use articles from introductory nursing journals (e.g., Registered Nurse Journal or American Journal of Nursing).

You are required to write your annotated bibliography according to APA Manual 7th edition guidelines.

Please refer to the uploaded grading rubric for details on how this activity will be graded.
