COIT20249: Annotated Bibliographies for Assessment - Taxation Assignment

Internal Code: MAS5396

Annotated Bibliographies for Assessment

scenario:

• Assessment (COIT20249 Report) requires students to use at least 10 recent references. At least 6 of these must be academic references which are peer reviewed and/or textbooks. See Assessment 3 specifications for further details.
• Use the ARE and Triple R framework you learnt in Weeks 2 and 3 to research and select 5 Academic references you would use for your Assessment 3 (Report) – do not use the references you used for PA 3 in Week 6. All references must be from the last 5 years (dated 2012 onwards) and must be selected using the Triple R framework.
• In Week 3, you learnt about Annotated Bibliographies. Using those skills, provide an annotation for each of the 5 references. See pp. 132 – 134 in your Textbook and refer to Week 3 materials on Annotated Bibliographies. Each reference must be formatted in APA style – see week 5 materials and CQU APA Referencing guidelines.

Questions:

• Focused on the correct task; selected 5 Academic References relevant to the Report topic, using the Triple R framework.
• Note that the rest of the annotation may not be graded if any of the references are: o older than 5 years (before 2012 - see report requirements), o not academic or o do not relate to the report topic.
• The references must not include those provided for PA 3 (0 marks for those references if used).
• Grammatically correct annotation, and easy to read and understand,
• Well-structured annotation in a single paragraph for each reference,
• Each reference correctly formatted in APA style (does not include the references given for PA3); and
• Within the recommended length for each reference and submitted as an MS-Word file.
• Correctly formatted academic reference in APA style,
• Summary of reference, in 1 or 2 sentences
• Evaluation author credentials/summary of key themes, in 1 or 2 sentences
• Explanation of how research was conducted, in 1 or 2 sentences
• Evaluation of the reference (using Triple R framework), in 1 or 2 sentences

Notes: ? Each reference should have a separate annotation; see example layout below. This should NOT be written in first person perspective. See example in the PPT on Annotated Bibliographies from Week 3. ? Each annotation should be approximately 150 – 200 words but comply with the requirements for the number of sentences.
