  • Gang violence
  • Border security
  • 30 Million Uninsured Americans
  • The collapse of the housing market
  • The crisis of American Education
  • The college football playoff system (BCS vs. Playoffs)
  • Increasing use of Medical Marijuana
  • Low turnout of American voters

Once you have decided on your topic, formulate a research question to narrow it. Ask yourself: what is the specific problem you will be writing about and what is the solution to that problem? Performing research will help you to narrow your topic and find outside sources which will support your proposed solution. For this assignment, you will create an annotated bibliography of the outside sources that you find.

What is an annotated bibliography?

An annotated bibliography is a brief list of the sources you plan to use in your research paper. This list is presented in APA formatting. You will present the source and then include a paragraph that explains what it is about, how it relates to your topic, and why it is important to your paper.
