This is where to post your second and third Annotations.

Make sure your annotations look like this (but with a completed summary!):

 

ANNOTATION #1

 

#1—–CITATION: Morey, Erin. “New York City’s Wait… Pilot Program: An Integrated Approach to Water Quality Improvement.” Journal – American Water Works Association, vol. 110, no. 4, 2018, pp. 36–38, doi:10.1002/awwa.1060.

 

#2——4-part academic summary of the source. [incomplete]

1–author’s thesis including author’s name and title

2–more specific thesis–how they arrive at ideas/thesis

3–examples and methods used to deliver the thesis

4–author’s conclusion

 

#3—–student’s opinion of the source. I think that Morey’s article a good beginning point for researching water quality in NYC because it is short and to the point, current, and it has reliable sources.

 

#4——a brief rhetorical analysis: (1) an evaluation of the author’s credentials, (2) writing style, and (3) purpose, and (4) why you think the author is credible or not. Each of these four can be as short as one sentence. Based on Morey’s years of experience, her master’s degree from Columbia University, her knowledge of water systems, she is highly credible. Morey’s style is academic and her purpose is to inform on the new “Wait” program.

 

#5—Genre. Peer reviewed journal article. [Is this journal a good venue for this information?] Morey’s short article good for the intended audience–waterworks specialists and people involved with water systems such as drinking water and waste water–and also the general public.

 

#6—Key quote and evaluation: “DEP will also use this second phase to analyze potential citywide implementation of Wait… and integrated water management benefits from scaling up the program, including improved water quality and CSO reduction.” This quote is very helpful because it reinforces Morey’s thesis and points to where the program “Wait” is headed, which is to grow the program and improve water safety for the city.
