APA-MLA Annotated Bibliography: Complete Guide to Writing the Annotated Bib Part 1 

Due to Covid-19 I am struggling right now in what is now online college, you just saved me lol.

You sir, are a savior to us struggling students. I can never repay you for the information I've learned from this video, but I thank you from the bottom of my heart for the time and effort you went through to put it together.

I love the way you broke down "Annotated Bibliography"! I teach English to immigrant adults, they will appreciate this.

Thank you so much! Since returning to college after decades away and missing learning how to do research in school. I have managed messily to write papers yet this is going to help tremendously! I can be organized as I write now!!

Thank you so much Sir, I really learnt a lot from this video, you make it very easy to understand. God bless you abundantly in Jesus mighty name.

Thanks for explaining this the way you did. You weren't kidding when you said it's something simple turned complex, I watched all the parts and went "Wait, I've been doing this my whole life!" Thank you!

Thank you so much for explaining. Every word you said made sense to me.

you’re like if Bob Ross was an English Teacher

Just found this video. Thank you so much for making a series of videos about the annotated bibliography. My students this past semester have struggled so much with it, I wish I had known about this video earlier. Alas, I'll be sure to show my students next semester! :)

CHeeohhhhh Ive been struggling to write a research paper that needed to be in annotated bibliography and this is my savior.Thank you sooo muchhh!!!

Damn! (excuse the Swedish), you are so good and you explain this smoothly. Glad I found you! Thank you and happy new year!

Thank you so much, Sir!! I'm writing paper now, and this really helps❤🙏🏻

I Like the way you teach. it is very simple and understandable. Regards from Indonesia.

As a senior in college now having to do way more writing I have to say I LOVE THIS GUY. Out of every video on stuff I have seen his videos are ALWAYS so broken down. Anytime I have to write something I always look at his channel to see if he covered it because he truly explains to so you can actually understand it. Thank you for the videos sir. I am so happy that my COMM 300 professor gave us your channel last semester.

I used Part 1 this morning in my composition class, and I referred my students to your follow-up videos. Thanks.

I’m working on finishing my history degree after a 7 year absence from college bc of health reasons. Do you think you could add some videos for history research formats? I really appreciate how you simplified everything.

Thank you a lot! I really love your teaching style. It is so simple but powerful. Your videos gave me a lot of hope. Wish you all the best and many thanks from Vietnam!

Your voice is soothing my stressed out student soul. Thank you for this easy to follow breakdown!

You have the best voice ever. So relaxing. Makes it very easy to sit, listen, and allow the information sink in.

thank you, thank you, thank you! I was struggling as to what to do with my annotated bibliography and you definitely broke it down into simple understandable terms which I did not understand from my university professor. much appreciated.

thank you very much.i will write Reflect on Annotated Bibliography.can you help me ?

Wonderful presentation. Much better than my University Writing Center. Thank you so much for making this presentation concise and easy to understand.

I am here because my Lecturer gave an assignment on the subject and thank you so much because you just broke things down. You made it so simple to grasp in few minutes

As an ESL, this video is the clearest one for me.Thanks a lot

Thank you so much for this video. Has been very informative. I have to do my first annotated bibliography and your video has helped.

I'm grateful for your posts on RU-vid because you make learning fun by simplifying the intimidating world of academia.

I appreciate this man's personality while teaching. He's very kind and calm. That's the best kind of teacher.

I have one due tommorow and haven't even finished the first source... I have to do 10 of them...

You’re great help and keep me focused. I wish you were my teacher!

my gosh thank you so much. I was completely clueless and it's due today! LOL Love the way you teach

I am about to quit college because of my English class. Why does it have to be so hard?

I teach English Comp at a Technical College, and your videos in this series are impressive. When I imagined exactly how I would design a video lesson on the Annotated Bib, and what elements I would include (Latin Roots = Always Awesome), it was pretty much exactly the way you did it. I never thought I'd find what I really wanted on RU-vid, but you did it! So thank you very, very much. You made this Coronavirus "transition to virtual learning" a little bit easier.

This tutorial helps me survive the first semester in online college

I loved this! It was so simple. I just understood everything. And the style of your teaching, your voice! 🤩 This is what a student needs. Thank you so much!

You Sir are now my hero!

should i be learning this in 6th grade?

@00:10 I already like this guy

Came here just for fun. No assignment

Omg 😱 thank you for breaking it down! I couldn’t get my brain around it, so much more manageable! Thank you! 🙏🏻

watching this for EAPP, this should help

Yoink

Thank you for the videos

I was about to give up on my English class. The teacher has not explained much and just sent us out into the wild to figure it on our own. I needed this so much. Thank you. You made it simple and I ready to ace this class.

Thought you were gonna be boring but I was wrong 😅 great explaining!

I think i just spaced out for 5 minutes and 47 seconds. Did I miss anything?

This was so helpful, thank you!

Thank you very much! Your presentation is highly informative and useful.

Whoever disliked this can fight me

why didn't I came here before. Great explanation

Thank you, my students will love this!

In text citation: I know that it's a must to write the author name, but what should I do if I found out that the paper I'm going to annotate has more than 6 authors? How can I mention them in the Annotation Bibliography ?

Reiterating previous comments: "Thank you so much for the strep-by-step instructions." I am no longer fighting the "Beast of Annotated Bibliographies." With your in-depth videos, I am now "The Conqueror".

So, my professor, has us doing Annotated Bibliographies on "Criticism of Works we read". I keep seeing things that tell me an Annotated Bibliography is "notes on something" so how do I write notes about notes when their just criticisms? :/

Awesome. Thank you

This man need to open his own WHOLE school ,not to teach students but to teach teachers.

boink

Thank u so much ! Very informative & specific

Great explanation, Thanks

thank you David

explained well! thank you dr. David.

Your videos are raising my confidence level! But, i started with the videos on Lit review, instead of this. You need to help further. Can you let us know the sequence to follow - which videos show we begin with? which videos should come last? Thanks in advance.

Totally unrelated but he is Bob Ross but for college students taking Writing & Research.

The Bob Ross of annotated bibliographys

I’m in 7th grade I have to do this for my NHD project Thanks a lot

Make his hair yellow, put the vid on mute and get me without glasses I would’ve thought this was trump

Thank you so much for your help!! although I have a wuestion, for my assignment (grade 11) I had to analyze a Song that a singer wrote and what the song means. In this assignment I gave a biography about Who the singer is, his background, his story, how he became famous, what the song means, the literary and poetic devices in it, and also had to add photos that i feel relate to the song. Now that i’m done that i’m expected to make an annotated Bibliography. But i don’t understand how to do that on a situation like this. am i citing the cites I got the information from and what more would there be to write about? pls help!

We have some students who reside in a country where RU-vid is not accessible. Do you have this video (and others) on a different streaming platform? Thanks in advance for your help!

Thank you!!

Thnks so much from Scotland for this succint and helpful smmary:)

Holy shnikes

Pardon me, but latin for 'book' is liber, and βίβλος is Greek for 'book'.

Thank you. The language they use in these things tends to be intimidatingly obscure.

First time talking college-level class and I had to do one of these and was so confused.

Hi just a small correction: Bibli comes from ancient Greek not Latin :)

Biblion is not latin. It is Greek. Bible means the set of books - in this case, religious ones.

Thank You

I'm here thinking I have to do a research paper, turns out it's an annotated bibliography; which I have never done before...so I appreciate this video.

My lecture wants me to compile a list of 40 children's books and I have to use annointed bibliography. I am so confused.

Thank you so much David! Its very helpful content.

You are excellent!

This is excellent; made so simple and understandable.

Finally something helpful. Thank you!

how should i learn idiom and phrases ? any trick for it

good

Wonderful explanation. Thank you!

You are so addictive ❤️😍

I really like your work. I like how you simplify stuff and relax the listener. I'm writing a paper on Nursing home patients not being let outside enough to be in the sunlight and fresh air. Although I am in good shape and I already have 6 of the 10 pages typed out. I need to hand in annotative bigliography very soon. Your videos are helping me to complete that project successfully. I think you very much for that.

Thank You So Much for making this video for all of us!!! Your down to earth way of simplifying the instructions relieved so much stress for me. I have watched your video twice and I have a question. I understand the reflection is something I do to make sure my source is legitimate and worth using. In my head, like you said? Is that right? Is the 3rd part where you say I write down quotes, facts, stats things, notes I keep for writing my paper or in my case, use in my power point? Thanks for your help.

This is the best video of an AB. Thank you so much David. Can't agree more with @LadySuadela - Uni not helping much. Keep them coming. Thanx ;)

Boink!

Thank you David for the useful and helpful videos

Thank you, I rely heavily on your videos.

Thanks for making me feel stupid with your simple and effect explanation of what annotated bibliography is!
