Description

This annotated bibliography will consist of an introduction, followed by two quantitative article annotations, two qualitative article annotations, and two mixed methods article annotations for a total of six annotations, followed by a conclusion. Submit the annotation of a quantitative research article on a topic of your interest.

An annotated bibliography is a document containing selected sources accompanied by a respective annotation. Each annotation consists of a summary, analysis, and application for the purpose of conveying the relevance and value of the selected source. As such, annotations demonstrate a writer’s critical thinking about and authority on the topic represented in the sources.

In preparation for your own future research, an annotated bibliography provides a background for understanding a portion of the existing literature on a particular topic. It is also a useful precursor for gathering sources in preparation for writing a subsequent literature review.

  • Use the Walden library databases to search for quantitative, qualitative, and mixed methods research articles from peer-reviewed journals on your topic of interest.
  • Before you read the full article and begin your annotation, locate the methodology section in the article to be sure that it describes the appropriate research design.
    • For quantitative research articles, confirm that a quantitative research design, such as a quasi-experimental, casual comparative, correlational, pretest–posttest, or true experimental, was used in the study.
    • For qualitative research articles, confirm that a qualitative research design or approach, such as narrative, ethnographic, grounded theory, case study, or phenomenology, was used in the study.
    • For mixed methods research articles, confirm that a mixed methods research (MMR) design was used in the study. There are several design classifications in MMR; some examples of MMR types or families of design are parallel, concurrent, sequential, multilevel, or fully integrated mixed methods design.
  • Prepare an annotated bibliography that includes the following:
    • A one-paragraph introduction that provides context for why you selected the six research articles you did: two quantitative, two qualitative, and two MMR.
    • A reference list entry in APA Style for each of the six articles that follows proper formatting. Follow each reference list entry with a three-paragraph annotation that includes:
    • A one-paragraph conclusion that presents a synthesis of the six articles.
  • Format your annotated bibliography in Times New Roman, 12-point font, double-spaced. A separate References list page is not needed for this assignment.
  • User generated content is uploaded by users for the purposes of learning and should be used following Studypool's honor code & terms of service.

    Teaching Methods: Annotated Bibliography
    The use of literature in research is essential in informing researchers’ approach and
    knowledge on a topic. My topic of interest is the different learning methods used in different
    contexts to boost effectiveness in learning. As such, my selection of articles is based on a few
    learning methods mainly the flipped classroom, group learning, and the use of technology. The
    articles selected here reflect success in implementing nonconventional learning approaches and
    hence are useful in informing my research on the same topic. The articles are grouped into
    quantitative, qualitative, and mixed-methods research and annotations highlight their focus and
    application.
    1. Quantitative Studies
    Ling, W. N., Bin Ghazali, M. I., & Raman, A. (2016). The effectiveness of student teamsachievement division (STAD) cooperative learning on mathematics achievement
    among school students in Sarikei District, Sarawak. International Journal of
    Advanced Research and Development, 1(3), 17-21.
    This article sought to find the effectiveness of Student Teams-Achievement Division (STAD)
    learning strategy in mathematics in Malaysia. The researchers organized students into the
    experimental group and a control group and conducted pre-test and post-test utilizing the STAD
    learning strategy. The basis for this research was the effectiveness of collaborative techniques in
    enhancing comprehension in mathematics. An Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) revealed that
    STAD was more effective than conventional means of learning and hence the study encouraged
    its adoption for mathematics education.
    The research question and the overall relation of the research to existing knowledge are effective
    in this study. The authors clearly outline the need for more innovation in mathematics education

    hence the study. Moreover, the sample size of 35 students was sufficient for the results since it
    modeled a typical classroom. However, a larger sample would need to be used if the results are
    to be applied nationwide or even regionally. Also, the findings are reliable due to rigorous
    research e...
