Annotated Bibliography

What score did you give yourself and why?
After reviewing my annotated bibliography, alongside the midterm rubric, I believe my work falls in the 50-43 range. The APA citations are accurate, although, two needed a bit more indentation. The credibility of each resource is explained thoroughly, as well as the main ideas of each article while going into detail on why each source was beneficial to the “paper” at hand.
In which areas were you lacking?
Overall, the bibliography was very strong and detailed, however, there may have been a few fragmented sentences that I failed to pick up on.
What opportunities did you identify for improvement?
I would like to improve upon denotation and connotation, as well as determining when to use an active voice

I was able to cite a variety of relevant sources, thinking back I feel I need to review my research strategies. I still somewhat struggle when it comes down to researching a topic, therefore my main goal is to expand my sources and be able to improve my referencing abilities by the sources I consult and what I do with my findings. I need to plan which primary and secondary sources will help me find the material I need and to ensure I refer to in force and up to date materials. I was marked down and this was quite possibly due to me not citing authoritative sources and not using the OSCOLA referencing style guide accurately.…
