...Developing Your Annotated Bibliography READING CRITICALLY Here are some general questions to help you with reading journal articles critically in order to develop an annotated bibliography. 1. What is the larger context of why this article was written? To what is the author responding? I hope that you will begin to ask this question for everything you read. All perspectives are partial and you need to not only know where the article is situated in the larger sociopolitical debate but also what it is saying and not saying or implying about a specific issue. This question may best be answered last after you understand the author's main argument. This question is about the larger debate that the author is engaged in or the implication of his/her work given his/her thesis. The author’s own background is mostly a factor in the reason for the essay. [e.g., The article is about “lazy welfare mothers” and thus it contributes to the debate for welfare reform.] 2. What is the author's main argument? Search the reading for the thesis statement and either quote or paraphrase it with citation (page number, and location in page if reference is assigned reading). Explain clearly what the main argument of the author is. If question #1 is about motive, this question is about what the crime is. [e.g., The main argument by the author is that welfare mothers are lazy and just abusing taxpayers’ generosity.] 3. What are the evidences the author used to support his/her argument? Good...

...Annotated Bibliography: What the Literature Says About Juvenile Sex Offenders The following articles, factsheets, and studies have been compiled to assist attorneys and individuals working on behalf of youth charged with sexual offending. The information contained in these resources aim to help others realize the fundamental differences between adult sex offenders and juvenile sex offenders, which include positive responses of juveniles to treatment, low recidivism rates of juveniles and negative impact of registries on youth development. It is our hope that this information will be used to improve legal outcomes for juvenile sex offenders, and uphold the purpose of the juvenile justice system as a rehabilitative, not punitive, system.

Retrieved from http://search.proquest.com/docview/1243100843?accountid=14872 Authors Chanmugam and Hall (2012) took on the responsibility of researching youth of who are lodged in domestic violence shelters and behavior is impacted by it. For example, they have “problems in several domains, including externalizing and internalizing problems, posttraumatic stress symptoms, and lower social competence and academic achievement” (p. 831). Yet, with the youth being housed in domestic violence shelters along side their mother’s, one may think that their behavior would turn from being negative more into a positive outcome which would lead to less social impediments. Besides, this article will impact my research by highlighting how their living conditions in the shelters stimulate the cause-and-effect of psychosis in domestic violence with them being the antagonist. Even though, they are victims of this behavior, the added question remains and that is how does the intervention that is offered transform them? For the simple fact, the resolve of intervention methods should serve as a buffer to aid in...

He goes on to say that cows were never meant to eat consume corn to make them fatter at a faster rate. The cows become sick by eating corn which causes the farmers to inject the cows with antibiotics to fight the contamination of E-Coli in the beef. Kiernan also goes on to say that this genetically changes the way the meat is produced. Basically it changes the healthiness of the meat and causes it to be unhealthy for human consummation. Bill Kiernan is the director of GAI Research & Insight. His research into the production of agriculture and the consummation of beef is very well documented in his research. Kiernan discusses the key points of my paper. For example when I stated that I had to find out where the meat had come from and how and why was it altered. Later in my paper I discussed how speaking with a butcher I found out that the beef was not grass fed, but corn fed which Kiernan discussed in his search for why some of us become sick and others do not.

Some key Points in this article were: challenges faced by children and families upon immigration, the methods behind Latino immigrants, and the results of different studies based on Latino immigrants. This is an interesting article because we all have our personal opinions on immigrants as a whole but after reading this article it gives us an understanding of what people go through, why immigrants do come to the United States and lately what happens to the children when things go wrong. Latino families are the most affected by poorer outcomes than other minorities. Latinos face on a daily outcome language challenges, loss of income, broken families, not being able to adapt to the United States, which put them as an outsider to people. Immigrants find their children to have poorer health, and fewer benefits such as cash assistance, health benefits, food stamps, and health insurance. This is also a concern for the ones who are full citizens and are not immigrants. Latinos come over to the US because they want better lives for their children and sometimes it does not matter where we live because if a family is broken or...
