Instructions
Using the information from this week’s reading material, submit an Annotated Bibliography of five (5) sources from your working bibliography. First, put the source in the correct citation format for your particular curricular division, and then write a brief annotation of that source. You are responsible for knowing what format to use. Use the format dictated by your major or the topic. If you don’t know what format your major uses, look it up here: https://apus.libguides.com/programstyleguides The annotation should consist of three parts.
1) Discuss the author’s credentials and explain why this source can be considered credible. DO NOT copy from the existing abstract. USE YOUR OWN WORDS.
2) Describe the main ideas covered in the source. DO NOT copy from the online abstract. USE YOUR OWN WORDS.
3) Evaluate the source’s usefulness for your project.
Remember that an online source can be a number of things. It can be a book, journal article, blog, podcast script, website, government report, newspaper article or editorial, or something else. Be sure to analyze each source carefully and follow the style guide in presenting the needed info. One goal in your annotation is to help your readers find the source if they want more information, so make it easy for them to do so.
Your final paper must include a minimum of seven (7) sources with at least four (4) sources coming from peer-reviewed journals taken from the APUS library. Please note that you are encouraged to include all four (4) of your sources coming from peer-reviewed journals taken from the APUS library in this annotated bibliography.
Both MLA and APA styles use a hanging indent and double-spacing for each entry at the end of the paper. Please be sure to check your work with a current style guide, such as those in the APUS Library, or the Purdue Online Writing Lab (OWL).

Calkins, Lucy. Raising Lifelong Learners: A Parent’s Guide. Reading: Addison-Wesley Longman. 1997. Print.Lucy Calkins is a noted teacher and researcher in reading and writing. Her book is a guide for parents, helping them to work with their children’s schools to create a positive learning environment and a lifelong love of learning in their children. Topics covered include fostering learning and curiosity in mathematics, science, social studies, reading, and writing. Calkins’ work also offers advice on school curriculum and testing. By providing specific examples of parental involvement, this book will help support my assertion that parents need to play a strong role in their children’s education.

Comparative Analysis – Understanding the Rhetorical Situation
Listening to and understanding the perspectives of others is difficult at best; however, as you become a more practiced researcher and writer you will want to understand the viewpoints on various sides of an issue so that you know your thesis is sound.
In Modules 2 and 3, you started to research many types of sources of information. As you created your research proposal and annotated bibliography in Module 3, you most likely looked at the topic from your own prevailing point of view. While this is okay to do, it will become important for you to dissect and understand all sides of the issue to include even the thoughts and opinions of your opposition. In the Module 3 discussion, you looked carefully at the main issues involved with your topic. In Module 4, you conducted an expert interview.
For this assignment, you are to synthesize the information gathered thus far to provide a balanced look at your topic and thesis. This is your chance to show your audience that you have thoroughly researched both sides of your topic as you move past the simple assumptions of being for the issue at hand or against it. This essay will show depth and complexity as you present the various sides of the topic in a balanced and academic voice.
With this assignment, you are conducting a stakeholder analysis of your topic. You are to consider the various people or institutions that have a stake in the topic you are exploring. For this essay you will consider four stakeholder entities.
Research
You have done much of the research for this assignment already especially as connected to your research proposal and the presentations this week! Review the notes from your interview with an expert. Assess whether you have enough information to present all sides of the topic. If your research seems to lean toward one side, remember that research writing is a process. Because of the recursive nature of research writing, continue searching for, evaluating, and annotating sources until you feel you have a thorough understanding of the topic and the various stakeholders.
For each stakeholder entity, research the following:
Who are your stakeholders?Identify at least four specific stakeholders or stakeholder groups.

What are their values?
Why do they think this issue is important?
What do they have to gain or lose?
What is their goal regarding your topic?
Look at this topic from their various perspectives and examine what these voices have to say.How are their positions similar or different from one another?
Discuss how and why the answers to the questions could be interpreted in different way.
Note how common ground might be reached with your topic for each stakeholder.

Write
Write an essay in which you show balanced analysis of your topic through the perspectives of the stakeholders identified.
Introduction: Your introduction should provide a comprehensive overview of the topic. You will provide background and context, as you note the main concerns of the issue at hand. As you conclude this introduction, map out the stakeholder you plan to identify in your paper.
Body: Note the stakeholders and their positions. For each stakeholder, write out at least one paragraph noting who they are, what their positions are, and why this topic is significant to their point of view and or causes.
Body: 2 to 3 paragraphs. Provide analysis and synthesis of the various viewpoints.How are various positions noted in the body paragraphs citing single stakeholders similar and/or different?
What connects the stakeholders?
What do you see as similarities or differences?
What is the confounding issue that makes this topic so complex?

Conclusion: In your conclusion, you can bring in your own topic thesis noted in the Module 3 assignment.Be sure to synthesize the information you present in your body paragraphs in tandem with your own claim.
Be sure to address any gaps and issues for the future as tied to your claim.

Headers Levels: You do not need to title them exactly as noted here. Note: Do not include a header for your introduction per APA.
Stakeholders and Their Positions (level 1 header)
Stakeholder Positions (level 1 header)
Connecting Stakeholders (level 1 header)
Opinion on similarities and differences (level 2 header)
Confounding Issues (level 1 header)
Conclusion (level 1 header)
Requirements:
Length: 1,000-1,100-words
5-7-sources
Include some quotations from your sources.
Paraphrase 5 to 7 other main ideas
Use third person (Links to an external site.).

Global Pandemic

The goal of this discussion is to consider what we know about the symbolism embodied in St. Peter’s Basilica in Rome, how it was designed to reflect the history and goals of the Catholic church, and how these features address the goals of the Counter-Reformation.
Based on the information provided by the reading and class lecture compose an answer to the following prompts. Total length (of both paragraphs) should be 500 words.
In one paragraph, identify and describe two characteristics of St. Peter’s Basilica in Rome that were intentionally designed to reflect its history and purpose as the home of the Catholic church. You can include details about the location, design, and decoration of the church (interior and exterior) and piazza that serve these purposes.
In a second paragraph, reflect how these two characteristics work to address the goals of the Counter-Reformation in the Catholic church, namely using art and architecture to “spread the prestige and teachings of the Church.”

Writing an effective Statement requires a bit of soul-searching and reflection. Before we delve more deeply into them, I want you to brainstorm and generate ideas for what you could include in your statement.
The following exercise asks you six general questions to help you brainstorm. As you brainstorm, it’s fine to start with more general statements and ideas and then hone in on more specific examples to include in your statement. But thinking of specific examples in advance will make writing the actual statement of purpose much easier!
Deliverable
Write down your answers to the following six questions. There are many brainstorming methods you could consider. Some people like making lists while others prefer to just free-write paragraphs. Some would rather draw a mind map or even make voice memos. Just so long as it helps you record the information and get your brain going, any method is fine.
Here are some things to consider in your brainstorming session, with brainstorming questions for each:
1. Your research/professional interests in the field
What interests you most in your field? Consider what you’ve researched/done before, and how closely you want your future interests to hew to what you’ve done in the past.
Are there particular issues, tasks, projects, themes, methods, theories, etc. that interest you?
What problems are you hoping to solve or address through your work/future career?
2. Your research/professional background and qualifications
What major projects have you worked on? For example, Did you write a thesis? Do an amazing internship? Work on a research project? Build an app? Have clinical experience?
If you have work experience, how is it relevant to your program, internship, or job? What competencies and skills did you build there that carry over to your planned research/work?
3. Your major accomplishments
Any major accomplishments not covered in your background/qualifications? Try to tie them back to your ability to succeed in graduate school, internship, and/o your specific professional endeavors.
4. What’s appealing about the specific program/job/internship you’re applying to
What about them made them attractive to you?
How can they help you grow professionally and/or educationally?
How will your work fit there?
5. Why you’re passionate about the field
What made you initially interested?
What goals are you passionate about accomplishing?
What do you find particularly fascinating or intriguing in your field?
6. Weaknesses to address
Are there any weaknesses in your application you need to address? If you have a semester with very low grades or another “hole” in your application, you can address it directly in your statement of purpose.Don’t offer excuses, but it’s fine to provide some kind of explanation: were you dealing with a family emergency or chronic illness? Did you need to work full-time and go to school full-time?
Whatever you write, try to frame it in positive terms, to emphasize your ultimate success in the face of setbacks.
