History
1. When discussing a new source, Bess includes the authors full name, Title of book, Publisher, and publishing date. After the source is cited he shortens his citations for efficiency to the reader for an easily spotted correlation. Bess then continues to shorten the citations to only Ibid with page number but when there is information between then he must go back to the last name, Title, and page number.
2. Bess explains his points and uses references within his annotations to go back and explore more about the text. Bess includes citations of the source and also gives extraneous details about the text. Bess includes his personal thoughts along with the details that are given in the text.
3. There are no notes in the annotations that are not connected to the text itself. Everything that is being talked about has been previously brought from the text that Bess is reading. Bess describes the text in his own words while he is annotating the text that he has read previously that are directly connected to the text. Bess is offering his opinions on what he understood while reading the text.
4. Bess left numbers after the text that he cited so that his reader could go back and find his citations and annotations in the notes pages. The numbers correspond to the notes and citations that he left on the notes page. Bess also uses the authors name in the text and the books that he used with only leaving out the date and page number.
5. Bess uses both primary and secondary sources throughout his work. His ideas are his own because he uses the sources and applies his own words as an informed opinion to add onto the sources that he uses throughout the article.
