“Smith 1999 provides a historical overview of the use of tape-recorders from the 1700s to the 1900s. Jones 2010 is a good cross-cultural study of people who like to talk to other people; however his descriptions of French waiters who talk to American bank tellers did not match my interview data, so I will have to discuss possible differences between the two situations.)

Annotated Bibliography
Assignment Instructions:
1. Choose one of the “themes” that you wrote about in last paper work (I uploaded). This will be your paper topic for the annotated bibliography and for my next narrative analysis order.
2. Find 4 academic references on that topic which are NOT listed below (Money and morality, identity, gendered work, consumption and spending, unpaid work – worthless or beyond price, Child socialization, alternate employment).
3. Write a small (1/2 page single-spaced or less) abstract or annotation for each article, highlighting those aspects that pertain to your topic (see the Annotated Bib Examples handout for examples.)
4. In addition to your bibliography, write a 1 page mini-essay describing your topic and how these 4 readings are relevant to it.
(For example: “Smith 1999 provides a historical overview of the use of tape-recorders from the 1700s to the 1900s. Jones 2010 is a good cross-cultural study of people who like to talk to other people; however his descriptions of French waiters who talk to American bank tellers did not match my interview data, so I will have to discuss possible differences between the two situations.)
