Once submitted, your assignment will be evaluated by Turnitin® automatically. You will be able to view an Originality Report within minutes of your first submission that will show how much of your work has been identified as similar to other sources such as websites, textbooks, or other student papers. Use your Originality Report as a learning tool to identify areas of your assignment that you may not have cited appropriately. The overall match can be no higher than 15%, with any one match no higher than 2%. You may resubmit your assignment through this dropbox as many times as you need to check to see if you have made improvements, until the due date of the assignment. However, once you have made your first submission, you will need to wait 24 hours after each subsequent submission to receive a new Originality Report. Plan accordingly as you draft your assignment. Once the due date has passed, your assignment submission will be considered final.

M4A1: Annotated Bibliography
An annotated bibliography builds on a basic bibliography and takes it to the next level. More than a list of sources one has used for researching a topic it includes additional information about each source along with a summary statement. An annotated bibliography is a scholarly work and should provide the reader insight into what you learned from each peer reviewed article, an evaluation of the usefulness of the resource, and the extent to which it contributed to new learning. Writing an annotated bibliography is an opportunity to analyze and synthesize the peer review literature concerning the material and social determinants of health, vulnerable populations, and health disparities. When this is complete, you should have sufficient knowledge of a specific health disparity to address them in the culminating paper.
To prepare for this activity please complete all required readings and viewing before continuing and access the recommended resources on health disparities. These will be helpful to you in identifying a disparity on which to focus your paper.
The annotated bibliography is the first part of the culminating paper, which focuses on vulnerable populations and health disparities. You will conduct a review of the literature to identify peer-reviewed articles that address the disparity. It is important to a have a range of articles that describe the disparity, the antecedents to the disparity, explain the population-based impact of the disparity, and identify what has been done to alleviate the disparity (successful programs as well as those that may not be successful).
This assignment is 10 one-half pages of annotated bibliographies for the scholarly works* you have selected (excluding title page) and accounts for 15% of your course grade.
Note: * A scholarly resource is defined as an article, book chapter, or textbook written by an expert in their field. Articles should be published in a peer-reviewed journal. Scholarly works include citations to material presented in the article or book chapter. You could also use this video provided by the library Scholarly vs. popular: What’s the difference?
