The role that overprescribing by Utah providers has played in addiction since 2000

ASSIGNMENT

Summarize—A brief rundown of the source. What are the main arguments? What is the point of the source? What topics does it cover? Be sure to include quotes and statistics that you plan to use in your paper.

Assess—After summarizing a source, evaluate it. What kind of source is this—website, book, article, or something else? Is this source useful? How does the source compare to the others in your bibliography? Is the information reliable? Is the source biased or objective? What is the goal of this source? What qualifies its author to speak on this subject?

Reflect—Once you have summarized and assessed a source, you need to ask how it fits into your research. Most of all, how does this source compare to the other sources in your annotated bibliography? Does it build on the same argument or come into conflict with what the others say? What new insight appears when using this source in conjunction with other elements of your research?
