What Teachers can do ti improve test scores.
Burns, David. “Will I do as well as on the final exam as I expect? An examination of students’ expectations.” Journal of the scholarship of teaching and learning 8.3 (2008) : 1-19. In the article Burns, a teacher an author of several books and articles, expresses the idea that students’ anticipations about their results in an exam will depend on their performance. The author supports his declaration by giving some arguments which support his proposal saying the students’ anticipations of results in a test may be affected by the time they spend preparing the exam and the effort they put preparing it.
Even though his arguments about students’ anticipations are strongly supported by evidence, it is necessary to say that those arguments lack of suggestions about how improve students’ expectations in the case it is necessary.
There are some factors which could act in order to have high expectations and low expectations of the result in an exam. According to that, the author illustrates that students tend to find out the causes of their faults in the exams and try to give solutions for the next performance in a test.
Burns also suggests that students who anticipate a high performance, reflected in a high grade on the exam, will think that their performance in the exam could be a sign of the preparation and effort they put on it.

You have a good summary. It shows an overall view of the topic. However there are many general ideas and they do not explain how teachers can improve test scores.
The summary has a well structure the introduction is well, it has the major points of the article. On the other hand the conclusion is vague. It does not appear a main idea in the conclusion.
The annotation is specific in term of summary but vague in relevant points of the article. There is no sign about what you think about the article. Nevertheless you did a good job using MLA style.
