Do 5 sources with a total of 600 words

My topic is about Adolf Hitler. Why can he be considered a monster?

Please look at my proposal so you can understand my topic better

For this assignment you must find a minimum of four acceptable sources. Do not limit your sources unnecessarily. If you find more than four sources, feel free to include them. When writing your annotated bibliography, you should follow these steps:

  • When you have several sources, you will need to write a correct MLA Works Cited entry for each source.
  • Start with your first source in alphabetical order. Type the works cited entry for the source in the proper format with all of the necessary information and then begin your annotation.
  • The first part of the annotation should be a brief summary of the source based upon the thesis, main ideas, and key terms. What is the main argument?
  • The second part of the annotation should be an assessment of the source, discussing its suitability as an academic source and its applicability to your research and project. Consider the author’s purpose and reliability, including some information about who the author is and why he or she is reputable. You may wish to discuss how the source relates to some of your other sources. Is the source objective or biased? Is it useful?
  • The last part of the annotation will be your reflection on the source. Consider how it fits in with your research. How helpful is the source? How do you see it fitting in with your project? How has it informed or otherwise changed or shaped your ideas?

The article highlights that Hitler was a true icon of evil. In this article, the author traces Hitler’s life from his childhood. The author outlines that Hitler encountered difficulty in his upbringing, which molded him into an evil person. Having moved to Germany from Austria, Hitler experienced pain creating social networks in Germany. Secondly, his bustard status made him bitter throughout his entire life. It outlines that Hitler experienced rejection in most instances. For instance, despite his devotedness to artistic works, he was rejected by the Austrian school of fine arts. Hitler denounced all philosophies and termed as lies. More so, his denouncement of the death of God affirmed his ‘superman’ believes.  The article is a suitable source for my research as it discusses factors that fueled Hitler’s actions.

This week culminates in your submission of an annotated bibliography that should 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.

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.

Please review the assignment instructions below and click on the underlined words for information about how to craft each component of an annotation.

Please use the document “Annotated Bibliography Template with Example” for additional guidance.

It is recommended that you use the grading rubric as a self-evaluation tool before submitting your assignment.

  • 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.

Requirements: Eight pages

In their study, Ostrander, Melville, Bryan, & Letendre (2018) propose modification on the school-wide bully prevention it supports all learners. The researchers agree that bullying is one of ten challenges experienced in the school environment. one of the strategies applied in preventing bullying behavior in the school is the positive behavior support (PBIS) model. PBIS model is an evidence-based intervention involved in schools. This intervention method train teaches administrators and school staff at large to offer positive reinforcement for children to prevent school bullying. Bullying prevention programs prepare educators to mitigate or avert bullying interaction by creating awareness and implementing bullying intervention methods. Therefore, Ostrander et al. (2018) address the gap available in the current bullying prevention research by utilizing a crucial staff perspective to address challenges encountered while addressing PBIS.  in their study, Ostrander et al. (2018) use the focus group method as a strategy of data collection. The researchers five focus groups, which included school staff members.
