Overview: In week four, you completed Milestone One of the final project(Biometrics characteristics) to provide an overview of the issue you selected and that was approved for your project. That overview outlined the importance of your selected issue with respect to a trend in the field of criminal justice and included information necessary to set the stage for your “supervisor.” Now you will identify and summarize five peer-reviewed scholarly articles that you will use to conduct further research on the selected issue for your final project.

An annotated bibliography is a list of citations for books, articles, and documents. Each citation is followed by a brief descriptive and evaluative paragraph (usually under 150 words): the annotation.

Prompt: Create an annotated bibliography summarizing the 10 peer-reviewed scholarly articles, which include both qualitative and quantitative research, that you will use for research for your final project.
