IEEE Citation Style �A citation style is used to give the reader immediate information about sources cited in the text. �This guide provides an overview of IEEE citation style which is used mainly in Electrical and Computer Engineering

Characteristics of IEEE citation style �The IEEE Style is a number style with two key components: � In-text citations, which appear within the text (a citation number in a square bracket), and � A reference list at the end of the text (which provides full details of all references cited in-text). �The citations in the reference list are numbered and appear in the same order that they appear in the text.

Characteristics of IEEE citation style (Cont. ) �The IEEE citation style has 3 main features: 1. 2. 3. The author name is first name (or initial) and last. The title of an article (or chapter, conference paper, patent, etc. ) is in quotation marks. The title of the book or journal is in italics.

Creating a reference list or a bibliography �A numbered list of references must be provided at the end of the paper. � The list should be arranged in the order of citation in the text of the assignment or essay, not in alphabetical order. �List only one reference per reference number.

Annotated Bibliography �What is an annotated bibliography? � An annotated bibliography gives an account of the research that has been done on a given topic. � An annotated bibliography provides a concise summary of each source and some assessment of its value or relevance. �Like any bibliography, an annotated bibliography is an alphabetical list of research sources. In addition to bibliographic data,

Writing an Annotated Bibliography �An annotation briefly restates the main argument of a source. � An annotation typically identifies: � its thesis (or research question, or hypothesis), � its major methods of investigation, and � its main conclusions.

Various kinds of annotated bibliographies �Annotated bibliographies do come in many variations: � Summarize only and not to evaluate. � Notice and comment on patterns of similarity and dissimilarity between sources � If the bibliography is long, consider organizing it in sections. Your categories of organization should help clarify your research question. � Some bibliography may require or allow you to preface the bibliography (or its sections) with a paragraph explaining the scope of your investigation and providing a rationale for your selection of sources.
