an annotated bibliography of 10 to 15 recent articles
related to an area of interest (e.g., various aspects of the
teaching of composition, literature, oral language; assessment; motivating
the at-risk student; multiculturalism in the English curriculum; etc.)
Design
a teacher research projectin
which an instructional innovation identified through the course of compiling
the annotated bibliography is implemented in your classroom and the results

of the literature on a problem in English/language arts and a suitable
design for a classroom research project addressing the problem.
