Practice MLA formatting
Organize your ideas coherently and concisely Synthesize your own ideas with the ideas from sources
Practice presenting information to readers in manageable chunks
Engage in self-reflection and planning processes

Length/Sources: You should include the 5 sources that you collected for your annotated bibliography and list them in section 6 of the research proposal. For this assignment only: you do not need to worry about including a hanging indent for your reference citations.
