This step serves as an opportunity for students to practice (or learn how to conduct) academic research as well as to demonstrate your critical analysis of the topic you are exploring in your final film project using women’s studies concepts and theories in clear, competent writing ability.
This is an individual assignment even if you are working on a group or duo project.
You will find 3 academic journal article sources that are DIRECTLY connected to film. One of your sources can be a course reading. If you want to use 1 scholarly book, you must first get permission from me before the assignment is due. You may NOT use newspaper, news magazine, non-peer-reviewed articles, or Wikipedia as one of your 3 sources. The Annotated Bibliography provides an opportunity for the student to conduct the library research early enough to find the best sources and for instructor to provide feedback on sources and the working thesis statement before the final paper or Auteur Statement is written. This link will help students use the correct format for the reference and examples for the annotation:
Here is an example and description of annotated bibliographies. For format, please use the MLA style.
See Syllabus for Rubric and be sure to follow it carefully. Don’t forget the Thesis Statement!
