This is an individual assessment. Each student will prepare their own annotated bibliography on autosamplers.


What is an annotated bibliography?

An annotated bibliography is a detailed citation list. Each citation is followed by a brief (150-200 words) descriptive paragraph (the annotation).

Guidelines

Please follow the example below when creating your annotated bibliography.

<aside> ✏️

**Author, A.A., & Author, B.B. (Date of Publication). Title of article. Title of Online Periodical, volume number(issue number), page range. Retrieved from http://www.homepage.com/fullurl/**

Underneath your correctly cited source, using the latest edition of MLA/APA/Chicago style, you will have the annotation or the descriptive paragraph. This information is meant to inform other readers of the accuracy, quality, and relevance of each source. Summarize the theme and scope of the item. Do not simply copy/paste the abstract. Evaluate the author's perspective and background. What makes the author(s) an authority on this subject? Who is the intended audience? Compare/contrast this item with another that you've included in your bibliography. How is this work unique? Does it agree/disagree with other works? Explain how this work supports your topic. Why have you identified it as important enough to include? What makes it relevant?

</aside>

Additionally, download the .pdf for each source and upload them in this Google Shared Drive folder. Files should be named as follows:

  1. for a single author: LastName_YEAR.pdf,
  2. for two authors: LastName_and_LastName_YEAR.pdf, and
  3. for three or more authors: LastName_etal_YEAR.pdf.

At the end of your annotated bibliography, also include a table with the following information for each reference:

| Reference | No. of Samples | Deployment Duration (days) | Cost (in US $) | Openness | Buildability | Manufacturability | ODRL | OTRL | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | LastName et al. (YEAR) | | | | | | | | |

Students are welcome to add additional columns. References should be hyperlinked to a .pdf in Google Drive.

Openness, Buildability and Manufacturability refer to criteria from the PubInv project (see Table 4 in Mies et al. (2022) for scales). Mies et al. (2022) also include criteria for open documentation readiness level (ORDL) in Table 2 and open technology readiness level (OTRL) in Table 3.
