I need an annotated bibliography done with the following instructions that must be followed precisely. I have included a rubric of how it will be evaluated.
MUST be formattedd using APA.
Education is a broad and diverse field of study. This assignment asks you to create an annotated bibliography of research that answers an educational-related question of your choosing and to explain its importance in a reflection. A good place to begin this process of exploring peer-reviewed papers related to your question is the Institute of Education Sciences website (http://eric.ed.gov). Other resources can be found on UTM library website. There are three necessary components of your assignment.
1. Develop an education-related research question. All good research begins with a clearly crafted research question. Your question should be concise (one sentence only), focussed (specific to a particular environment, community, or phenomena affecting education in Canada), that seek to understand a causal relationship (between specific education-related variables). This question needs to differ from the questions examined in the research questions.
2. Create an annotated bibliography (~300 words an annotation): Annotated bibliographies provide an overview of research on a particular topic. After reading through several research articles, select those whose focus and findings differ from each other but relate to your research question. Your annotated bibliography must consist of two peer-reviewed articles published after 2010 by different authors in different journals. Both these articles must explore different research questions relevant but not identical to your driving research question. None of the articles should be from our class reading list. Your bibliography must be properly formatted using APA formatting and include the DOI for each article (or a comparable link). When preparing your annotations, be sure to outline the research question, methodology and findings of each publication in your own words. Identify the limits of the study (sample selection, sizes, methodology etc.) and propose future research to address these limitations and/or expand on the research. Explain the relevance of each article to your overall research question.

3. Write a page reflection: In addition to your bibliography, you are asked to include a short reflection piece (about 250 words) that complements your annotated bibliography that explains why your larger research question merits study. You are asked to explain the importance and implication of all findings outlined in your annotated bibliography to a specific community or stakeholder group within the Canadian context. Make an explicit link to a current/persistent education problem by providing an example from the past 12 months. Describe the practice(s) that are supported by the findings of the articles using specific examples). Use proper citations where relevant.
