Current Issues in Education Psychology: Annotated Bibliographies

In this assignment, you will be required to select a current issue related to teaching and learning that you would like to research further and learn more about. Although you will be provided with a list of current issues from which you may choose, you are free to choose another issue that interests you as long as your choice is specifically related to the facilitation of teaching and/or learning. From your research of the topic, you will write five annotated bibliographies that revolve around your topic. An annotated bibliography is a brief synopsis and discussion of scholarly research, published in scholarly journals (not Web sites!) no earlier than 2000 (For examples see: The Purdue Online Writing Lab (OWL): http://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/614/01/; Cornell University: Olin and Uris Libraries: http://olinuris.library.cornell.edu/ref/research/skill28.htm). At least three of your annotated bibliographies must address articles that report empirical research findings (i.e., an article that has methods, results, and discussion sections) and your remaining entries may be theoretical reviews and recommendations. Each annotated bibliography should be no longer than 1.5 double-spaced pages in 12-point Times New Roman font.
