Here are the instructions for: First Half of Desk Study Annotated Bibliography (References list, annotations, & APA style required) and Second Half of Desk Study Annotated Bibliography (References list, annotations, & APA style required) For each of these annotated bibliography assignments, please prepare an annotated bibliography that features five (5) of your ten (10) peer-reviewed academic journal articles or books. These should be the same works that you found and used to complete your Desk Study References list. Your aim is to extend your DS References list assignment. Remember, all parts of your DS Project are on the same topic. As a jumping off point, please use the same document you prepared for your DS References list assignment, but add your annotated bibliography entries for five (5) of the ten (10) works featured on your DS References list assignment.  Remember, your annotated bibliography is comprised of two of assignments: (1) First Half of Desk Study Annotated Bibliography (References list, annotations, & APA style required) and (2) Second Half of Desk Study Annotated Bibliography (References list, annotations, & APA style required). That means that you are to feature the first five (5) works in your assignment: First Half of Desk Study Annotated Bibliography (References list, annotations, & APA style required) and feature the second five (5) works in your assignment: Second Half of Desk Study Annotated Bibliography (References list, annotations, & APA style required) Each entry of your annotated bibliography must include all of the following: 1.) a complete APA-styled citation for the selected peer-reviewed scholarly journal article 2.) below the proper APA citation, feature brief comments and annotations about the peer-reviewed scholarly journal article on your topic. This section must include at least one (1) complete in-text citation (you are required to quote from the source you are using) in formal APA style (which can be featured in any of the sections, listed below, of your entry) and at least the following: a.) your evaluation of the work (the value of the evidence, the logic of arguments, etc.) b.) your description of the arguments or findings in the source (do not simply copy/paste the abstract or introduction of the article) c.) the qualifications/credibility of the author(s) or publishing source d.) how this particular work relates to your topic and contributes to existing scholarly literature on your topic (providing this means you are required to read through several works/articles on your topic before you select and use your first source for this first annotated bibliography entry); in this section you are required to include at least 1 direct quote per entry (direct quoting requires formal in-text citations and block-length quotations are not permitted); and e.) how you plan to use the source to support your argument/thesis (identify specific aspects of the work that you will you most heavily utilize in your overall Desk Study Project). 3.) your categorization of the article; you are to determine if the article is most heavily: an Elaboration of the Statement of the Problem, a Design Study, a Review of the Literature, or an Analysis of Data. 4.) your justification for your categorization of each article; explain why you think that each article qualifies as the particular article category.An "article category" refers to how you are choosing to best/most accurately categorize/describe each of the articles you are citing. These are the article categories from which you should be selecting for each source: Elaboration of the Statement of the Problem: Use this if the article most evidently, clearly introduces/summarizes/conveys the problem being studied/examined/analyzed. Choose this if the article primarily and most strongly addresses the issue at hand (which is your DS Project topic). Design Study: Use this if the article's authors' study design -- their approach/research methods used to analyze/study the topic at hand -- is featured most heavily in the article. This means that the article primarily describes and presents the methods used to arrive at the results presented (methods could be field work, surveys, interviews, etc.). Review of Literature: Choose this if the article is primarily and most heavily a review of the existing literature on the topic at hand (your selected Desk Study Project topic). If you choose this category, you're reporting that the article is best described as a work that offers readers a review of the scholarship published on your topic. Analysis of Data: Select this if the article is mostly useful to you because of the analyses of the data it includes. In other words, the article is most heavily a presentation of the analysis/interpretations of the statistics/collected information from the studies carried out on the topic at hand (your DS Project topic). For more information about this article category, please see: http://www.uky.edu/~eushe2/Pajares/proposal.html (Links to an external site.)

Larger social forces discussion.  How do larger social, political and economic forces affect specific social problems? Provide specific examples if possible.

Demonstration of critical thinking (socio-historically and/or using Native American perspective) and reflective responses (taking in course content and rethinking one's view of the information) to the course content, as well as accurate conveyance of course content (do not misquote or misinterpret course content). Writing of quality papers. Learning and utilizing American Sociological Association's (ASA) style and formatting.***Required course content for RP3: Online Lecture(s) and/or Required Reading(s): RP3 (Spirituality and Well-being) must use the following course content from Module 3.*** “Spiritual Hucksterism (Plastic Medicine Man) vs. Traditional Native healers”: LECTURE Parris Butler: Incantation to dispel new age dogma:152. Susan Lobo, Steve Talbot and Traci L. Morris: VII The Sacred: Spirituality and SacredGeography:296-301. John (Fire) Lame Deer and Richard Erdoes: Alone on the hilltop:304-306.NOTE: If other (incorrect) course content is used, the paper will be graded for half points. Instructions:Write your thoughtful (reflective) responses to what you are learning from the online lectures and/or the content of the required readings. The above section specifies what course content you will base your reflective responses upon for Response Paper Assignment. You do not have to response to all of the above content. Focus your reflective responses to a central concept/idea and/or data within the lectures/required readings that have been particularly interesting to you. Think about and analyze this course content. The best papers critically discuss one concept in a thorough manner.Move beyond simplistic responses (e.g. “I enjoyed the online lectures”, or “The readings were hard”). Instead, demonstrate reflective thought in your paper. Explain why you enjoyed the readings or the lecture content with specificity. The goal for Response/Reflection papers is to demonstrate reflective analysis of the course content; to take in knowledge and reflect upon it. The exercise of critical thinking skills is a necessary component of this assignment. This does not mean to only find flaws and judge harshly. Instead, critical thinking "... is that mode of thinking - about any subject, content, or problem - in which the thinker improves the quality of his or her thinking by skillfully taking charge of the structures inherent in thinking and imposing intellectual standards upon them” (Paul and Elder 2008:1).Do not summarize the above-required readings/lecture content, this is nota report paper. Do not fill your paper with numerous and/or overly long quotes. Use two references in your course content section: one medium to short (less than 50 words) quote (remember to use quotation marks if you using the exact words from the readings and/or lecture material); and one paraphrased reference (remember to cite in ASA style when paraphrasing/using ideas from the readings and/or lectures). To access an Excerpt Example based on RP1: Doctrine of Discovery Course Content, go to Module 3. FormattingYour paper must be a Word document using Times New Roman 12 point font. Save your document with the following name: Last name underscore First name initial underscore RP3 underscore Soc underscore 315 underscore F19. For example (using my information): Willeto_A_RP3_Soc_315_F19. (Word will add the extension ‘docx’ to your file). Students are required to use the American Sociological Association’s Guidelines (ASA) style: 1.25 (1- 1/4) inch margins on all sides of the paper, double-spaced throughout. For a quick style guide of the ASA, go to: 'Soc 315 Home Page' and click on the link to 'ASA Quick Style Guide Fourth Edition'. Title Page: For your paper, use a cover page that includes the following information. Title, bolded and centered: Assignment: Response Paper 3 on Spirituality and Well-being; [insert a blank double-space] Course Content (numerically list the lectures and/or readings) that you’re actually responding to: For example: 1. Forbes “The Urban Tradition Among Native Americans” (2016:398-409). 2. Willeto (2019) ‘The Doctrine of Discovery and the Americas Before Columbus – LECTURE’. Then, [insert some blank double-spaces] your full name, course information (Soc. 315, Fall2019), Northern Arizona University, and the assignment due date (see course schedule in the syllabus). Finally, use of running heads, word count or an abstract are unnecessary for Response Papers. Main Body of Response Papers Beginning on page two, the main body of your paper should be double-spaced with 1.25" (1-1/4”) margins on all sides of the paper. Also ‘level 1 headings’ for the title, course content and discussion (see the excerpt example in Module 3). Use an italicized ‘level 2 heading’ for 'My Reflective Responses” (see the excerpt example). Turning in incomplete work will result in lower scores. I also suggest that you proofread and run the spell-checker before turning in your work. The Reflective Response Paper is worth 100 points; see the course schedule in the syllabus for due dates; and use the Response Paper submission link in the Assignments & Exams folder to submit your work (as an attachment in Word). You must use Word, any other type of document will be returned ungraded since I cannot access your document. You are expected to do your own work and do not plagiarize (see the syllabus for more information on plagiarism). Use of properly cited materials in the author/date style is required. Append the full citations for the references to the end of the paper.
