Step 8: Document your sources with an annotated bibliography
Step 9: Share your answer to your question with a presentationHere are more details on how to complete a Deep Dive assignment-
About the annotated bibliographyAn annotated bibliography is a bibliography (list of sources in APA format- 7th edition) with additional notes. For the deep-dive project, the annotated bibliography allows me to see the articles you are using in your project and your process for choosing it.Your annotated bibliography should include the following sections:

- Paragraph 1 (4-6 sentences) summarizing the source
- Paragraph 2 (2-6 sentences) explaining how the source was used in your deep dive and to answer your question
- need to used good resources like New York Times and also Lehman College library website
About the presentationYour recorded presentation demonstrates your understanding and synthesis of information in the deep dive. The presentation must include your voice and visuals that keep the audience’s attention. Presentations should be between 5 and 8 minutes long.
