Author. Title of Source. Publisher. Date Published. Url. Date Accessed


Will's first annotation was good. He wrote his three paragraphs and framed his quotes. If anything, he needs to make sure his citations are in proper format and make sure his sentence structure and grammar are up to par. For example, he needs to reread and revise so there's no mistakes and everything flows.

2. Karen Warner. John Lee. "Discovering the Bad in Doing Good: A Closer Look at International Volunteerism. Standford University. 04/2008. web.stanford.edu/group/pwruab/cgi-bin/pwrofthepen/wp-content/uploads/2008/04/karen-warner1.pdf. 01/31/2018.


His second annotation is a little shorter. He did put the sources in conversation in the first citation, and stated how voluntourism isn't; necessarily bad, but it lacks the correct methods to make a positive impact. Maybe he can think about putting more of his own analyses and comparing that to the authors point of view.


Abigail:

Abigail's first source isn't in proper MLA format. It is hard to establish the credibility of the source since I don't know much about the author. Looking at the source with the link provided, I think this is a good source for information, but I am not entirely sure this could be an academic source since the credibility for the author wasn't established. She should look into this and replace it if it's needed.

In this citation, maybe she could revise it and write the author's name first so it's easier to incorporate into her paper.

-Author. Title of Article. Website. Date published. URL. Date accessed.

She can also work on sentence structure so everything flows coherently for the reader. There can also be more discussion on the relevance of the source and how it affects her research.
