Topic 6 Annotated Bibliography Career Choice and its Global Purpose Creating an annotated bibliography calls for the application of a variety of critical thinking skills: research, analysis, and concise exposition. Step 1: Think about your career, the reasons for choosing it, and whether it will have a global impact. For example, if you are choosing an engineering career, why did you choose it? Some choose this career to specialize in designing prosthetics with a focus on victims of landmines (the global impact). Locate scholarly articles that contain useful information, including ideas supporting your career choice and your purpose for choosing this career path. Be sure to choose resources that provide a variety of perspectives on your topic. For help on library research, refer to Topic 2 Library Research assignment. Step 2: Cite the scholarly article using GCU Style. Refer to the Student Success Center for more information. Step 3: In 100-200 words (each resource), write a concise annotation that summarizes the ideas and perspectives within the scholarly resource. (Ideas to include in your annotation can include: evaluation of the authority or background of the author; comments on the intended audience; comparison of this work with another you have cited; explanation of how this work illuminates your topic.)

SAMPLE ANNOTATION Citation (including link/permalink) Belcher, D. D. (2004). Trends in teaching English for specific purposes. Annual Review of Applied Linguistics, 24(3), 165-186. doi:10.1017/S026719050400008X. Annotation This article reviews differing English for specific purposes (ESP) trends in practice and in theory. Belcher categorizes the trends into three non-exclusive sects: sociodiscoursal, sociocultural, and sociopolitical. Sociodiscoursal, she postulates, is difficult to distinguish from genre analysis because many of the major players (e.g., Ann Johns) tend to research and write in favor of both disciplines. Belcher acknowledges the preconceived shortcomings of ESP in general, including its emphasis on “narrowly-defined venues” (p. 165), its tendency to “help learners fit into, rather than contest, existing…structures” (p. 166), and its supposed “cookie-cutter” approach. In response to these common apprehensions about ESP, Belcher cites the New Rhetoric Movement and the Sydney School

as two institutions that have influenced progressive changes and given more depth to “genre” (p. 167). She concludes these two schools of thought address the issue of ESP pandering to “monologic” communities. Corpus linguistics is also a discipline that is expanding the knowledge base of ESP practitioners in order to improve instruction in content-specific areas. Ultimately, she agrees with Swales (1996) that most genres that could help ESL learners are “hidden…or poorly taught” (p. 167) and the field of genre is only beginning to grasp the multitude of complexities within this potentially valuable approach to the instruction of language and, in turn, writing. This article provides examples as well as expert opinion that I can use in my project. This will provide me with evidence to support my claims about the current disciplines in ESL studies.

Annotation This article discusses how this job assists one in understanding all options so that they can provide a correct diagnosis, and therefore an effective and proper treatment plan. It begins with a consultation to go over the diagnosis and treatment plans, and will usually exhaust non-surgical methods until it is no longer possible. If surgery is necessary, a stellar surgical team will perform as skillfully as possible to ensure the most rapid and healthy recovery possible.

Annotation Othopedic surgeons are skilled in diagnosing and treating conditions of the muscoskeletal system; bones, tendons, joints, nerves, and muscles. Despite their title of “surgeon”, orthopedic surgeons also provide mechanical treatments, such as physical therapy and medications.
