interference with sleep and mood
state assessment variables and
resulted in a greater percentage of

The Main types of Plagiarism
Introducing Plagiarism
Strategies to Avoid Plagiarism
Summarizing
Paraphrasing
lsquoPlagiarism is passing off someone elsersquos work whether intentionally or unintentionally as your own for your own benefitrsquo (Carroll 20029)
Our view of instances of plagiarism as ldquoviolations of honor and moralsrdquo is based on ldquocultural assumptionsrdquo that ldquotexts are their authorsrsquo personal propertyrdquo and using without citing is ldquostealingrdquo (Ramanathan amp Atkinson 2011 p 181)
IntentionalDeliberate Plagiarism Knowingly plagiarizing or intentionally presenting someone elsersquos ideas research or words as your own What might be some reasons
IntentionalDeliberate plagiarism results fromhellip 1 time management 2 survival mechanism 3 strategy use 4 familypersonalhealth issues
Tomas Z CTLE Workshop on Plagiarism 2010
UnintentionalNon-Deliberate plagiarism
Improper paraphrasing of authorrsquos words or ideas
Improper summarizing of authorrsquos ideas or words
Failure to completely cite your original source
UnintentionalNon-Deliberate plagiarism results fromhellip 1 lack of understanding of the concept of plagiarism 2 developing language proficiency 3 developing academicdisciplinary expertise 4 problematic reading andor writing strategies 5 differing expectations and practices due to cultural
differences
bull ldquoI have too much other work to dordquo
bull ldquoI donrsquot understand what I just readrdquo
bull ldquoIf I donrsquot get an A my parents will kill merdquo
bull ldquoI canrsquot do thisrdquo
bull ldquoI donrsquot need to learn this I only need to pass itrdquo
bull ldquoBut you said work togetherrdquo
bull ldquoBut I had to sleep after dancing all night long
Who has time to summarizerdquo
Plagiarism Detection and Prevention 2001
bullDirectly copy without attribution blindly cut-
and-paste from numerous resources
bullImproperly summarize amp paraphrase donrsquot
change the terms AND sentence structure of the
original into their own words
bull Fail to give credit for otherrsquos ideas donrsquot
cite otherrsquos ideas or not citing directly after
the idea
bull Use improper citations provide false
information or not having all essential citation
information
Summarizing
What is summarizing
bull Taking a lager selection of a text and reducing
it to its most important points
bull Dropping all extra information and just getting
down to the main idea and the key points that
support that main idea
Why is summarizing important
bull It gives practice in expressing important ideas and finding main ideas
bull It is a way for monitoring onersquos own understanding
bull It is a way to learn about sequencing
Techniques for Summarizing an article
Read the article multiple times multiple ways
Scan the article first (headings captions pictures key
words)
Then read for depth
Read interactively
Allow enough time
bull Eliminate Wordiness
bull Use specific concrete language avoid vague references
bull Eg This () illustrates -vs- The framework illustrates
bull Rely primarily on paraphrasing not direct quoting
Pro Tip Keep taking notes in your own words Sticking closely to the original language appears you
donrsquot understand the study
Paraphrasing
What is paraphrasing
Restating otherrsquos ideas in your own words
Writing your interpretation of the authorrsquos meaning
Why is Paraphrasing important
bull It reduces the use of direct quotes
bull It presents the understanding of a text without copying someone elsersquos work
bull It gives a sense of fulfillment of the ethical responsibility as a student
bull Use synonyms
bull CAUTION You canrsquot just exchange a few words
bull Change numbers and percentages to different forms Eg (56 of the population over half 76 the majority)
bull Change the sentence structure and use different connecting words
In-Text Citation
How do I appropriately cite a source in the text
bull Include the authorrsquos last name and the year of
publication (Pavlov1890)
bull In case of direct quotation include the page number as
well (Pavlov 1890 p14)
Do I need to cite all the authors of the same article
bull It depends on how many authors there are If the info
you are citing has 6 or fewer authors you do have to
include all the names for citation the first time
bull After the first time you can list the first author
plus et al Example (Bailey et al 2001)
bull If there are 7 or more authors list the first six names
followed by ldquoet alrdquo
What if I find want to reference a secondary source
cited in another source
Give credit to the primary source citing for the
secondary source
Example I want to cite Trost 1986 - but I canrsquot
find the original I only have access to the
information in a secondary source ndash Beaujot 2000
Trost (1986) proposes that the customs and
connections keeping marriages together are no
longer as effective (as cited in Beaujot 2000)
Why should we use In-Text Citations
bull Gives credit to the source you are citing
bull Allows your reader to find your research
bull Gives you authority making it clear your ideas
are built on careful research and analysis
Learn how to use APA style effectively
Whether the author is alive or dead you
must give credit (cite source) if the idea is
not your own
Identifying Common Knowledge
bull Refers to information that the average educated reader would accept as reliable without having to look it up
bull Examples include
bull Information that most people know
bull Information shared by a cultural or national group
bull Knowledge shared by members of a certain field
Pro Tip
Keep in mind information that
may be common knowledge in
one culture nation academic
discipline MAY NOT be
common in another
How do I know if the information is common knowledge
You should consider
Who is my audience
What can I assume they already know
Will I be asked where I obtained my information
The following are examples of common knowledge
bull A description of Chomskyrsquos LAD (Linguistics)
bull Description of Aspergerrsquos Syndrome (Genetics)
Pro Tip
When in doubt cite your source
Which of the following do you think qualify as common
knowledge and why
Take 2 minutes to think decide and discuss with a
partner
1 Big-Bang theory posits that the universe began billions of years
ago with an enormous explosion
2 The first international coffee syndicate was based in Germany
3 George Washington was the first US president
4 The Chinese fishing industry produces 800000 of fish annually
What strategies do you use when writing paper or thesis
Practice note-taking skills (using your own words)
Cut-paste but with some steps to track sources Coloring quoting highlighting
Cite references as you go (track all sources in a table or excel)
Focus on keywordsideas when paraphrasing amp summarizing
Frequently check online resources for support (eg Purdue Owl see handout for a list)
Make appointments with your instructors for guidance
httpyoutube2q0NlWcTq1Y
In pairs or small groups you will review a studentrsquos attempt to work with an original source
Read the wording from the original source (in the box) then consider how this student used the source material (written below the box)
Tasks
Consider the place of your sample along a spectrum from NOT EFFECTIVE to EFFECTIVE source use
Make some notes with your partner(s) Choose one representative from your group to
place your sample on the spectrum Be prepared to defend your decision
Avoiding plagiarism is difficult but necessary
It requires that you do some lsquoresearchrsquo on how to
research
Most cases are accidental
You can even plagiarize yourself
Academic Integrity
Citation

lsquoPlagiarism is passing off someone elsersquos work whether intentionally or unintentionally as your own for your own benefitrsquo (Carroll 20029)
Our view of instances of plagiarism as ldquoviolations of honor and moralsrdquo is based on ldquocultural assumptionsrdquo that ldquotexts are their authorsrsquo personal propertyrdquo and using without citing is ldquostealingrdquo (Ramanathan amp Atkinson 2011 p 181)
IntentionalDeliberate Plagiarism Knowingly plagiarizing or intentionally presenting someone elsersquos ideas research or words as your own What might be some reasons
IntentionalDeliberate plagiarism results fromhellip 1 time management 2 survival mechanism 3 strategy use 4 familypersonalhealth issues
Tomas Z CTLE Workshop on Plagiarism 2010
UnintentionalNon-Deliberate plagiarism
Improper paraphrasing of authorrsquos words or ideas
Improper summarizing of authorrsquos ideas or words
Failure to completely cite your original source
UnintentionalNon-Deliberate plagiarism results fromhellip 1 lack of understanding of the concept of plagiarism 2 developing language proficiency 3 developing academicdisciplinary expertise 4 problematic reading andor writing strategies 5 differing expectations and practices due to cultural
differences
bull ldquoI have too much other work to dordquo
bull ldquoI donrsquot understand what I just readrdquo
bull ldquoIf I donrsquot get an A my parents will kill merdquo
bull ldquoI canrsquot do thisrdquo
bull ldquoI donrsquot need to learn this I only need to pass itrdquo
bull ldquoBut you said work togetherrdquo
bull ldquoBut I had to sleep after dancing all night long
Who has time to summarizerdquo
Plagiarism Detection and Prevention 2001
bullDirectly copy without attribution blindly cut-
and-paste from numerous resources
bullImproperly summarize amp paraphrase donrsquot
change the terms AND sentence structure of the
original into their own words
bull Fail to give credit for otherrsquos ideas donrsquot
cite otherrsquos ideas or not citing directly after
the idea
bull Use improper citations provide false
information or not having all essential citation
information
Summarizing
What is summarizing
bull Taking a lager selection of a text and reducing
it to its most important points
bull Dropping all extra information and just getting
down to the main idea and the key points that
support that main idea
Why is summarizing important
bull It gives practice in expressing important ideas and finding main ideas
bull It is a way for monitoring onersquos own understanding
bull It is a way to learn about sequencing
Techniques for Summarizing an article
Read the article multiple times multiple ways
Scan the article first (headings captions pictures key
words)
Then read for depth
Read interactively
Allow enough time
bull Eliminate Wordiness
bull Use specific concrete language avoid vague references
bull Eg This () illustrates -vs- The framework illustrates
bull Rely primarily on paraphrasing not direct quoting
Pro Tip Keep taking notes in your own words Sticking closely to the original language appears you
donrsquot understand the study
Paraphrasing
What is paraphrasing
Restating otherrsquos ideas in your own words
Writing your interpretation of the authorrsquos meaning
Why is Paraphrasing important
bull It reduces the use of direct quotes
bull It presents the understanding of a text without copying someone elsersquos work
bull It gives a sense of fulfillment of the ethical responsibility as a student
bull Use synonyms
bull CAUTION You canrsquot just exchange a few words
bull Change numbers and percentages to different forms Eg (56 of the population over half 76 the majority)
bull Change the sentence structure and use different connecting words
In-Text Citation
How do I appropriately cite a source in the text
bull Include the authorrsquos last name and the year of
publication (Pavlov1890)
bull In case of direct quotation include the page number as
well (Pavlov 1890 p14)
Do I need to cite all the authors of the same article
bull It depends on how many authors there are If the info
you are citing has 6 or fewer authors you do have to
include all the names for citation the first time
bull After the first time you can list the first author
plus et al Example (Bailey et al 2001)
bull If there are 7 or more authors list the first six names
followed by ldquoet alrdquo
What if I find want to reference a secondary source
cited in another source
Give credit to the primary source citing for the
secondary source
Example I want to cite Trost 1986 - but I canrsquot
find the original I only have access to the
information in a secondary source ndash Beaujot 2000
Trost (1986) proposes that the customs and
connections keeping marriages together are no
longer as effective (as cited in Beaujot 2000)
Why should we use In-Text Citations
bull Gives credit to the source you are citing
bull Allows your reader to find your research
bull Gives you authority making it clear your ideas
are built on careful research and analysis
Learn how to use APA style effectively
Whether the author is alive or dead you
must give credit (cite source) if the idea is
not your own
Identifying Common Knowledge
bull Refers to information that the average educated reader would accept as reliable without having to look it up
bull Examples include
bull Information that most people know
bull Information shared by a cultural or national group
bull Knowledge shared by members of a certain field
Pro Tip
Keep in mind information that
may be common knowledge in
one culture nation academic
discipline MAY NOT be
common in another
How do I know if the information is common knowledge
You should consider
Who is my audience
What can I assume they already know
Will I be asked where I obtained my information
The following are examples of common knowledge
bull A description of Chomskyrsquos LAD (Linguistics)
bull Description of Aspergerrsquos Syndrome (Genetics)
Pro Tip
When in doubt cite your source
Which of the following do you think qualify as common
knowledge and why
Take 2 minutes to think decide and discuss with a
partner
1 Big-Bang theory posits that the universe began billions of years
ago with an enormous explosion
2 The first international coffee syndicate was based in Germany
3 George Washington was the first US president
4 The Chinese fishing industry produces 800000 of fish annually
What strategies do you use when writing paper or thesis
Practice note-taking skills (using your own words)
Cut-paste but with some steps to track sources Coloring quoting highlighting
Cite references as you go (track all sources in a table or excel)
Focus on keywordsideas when paraphrasing amp summarizing
Frequently check online resources for support (eg Purdue Owl see handout for a list)
Make appointments with your instructors for guidance
httpyoutube2q0NlWcTq1Y
In pairs or small groups you will review a studentrsquos attempt to work with an original source
Read the wording from the original source (in the box) then consider how this student used the source material (written below the box)
Tasks
Consider the place of your sample along a spectrum from NOT EFFECTIVE to EFFECTIVE source use
Make some notes with your partner(s) Choose one representative from your group to
place your sample on the spectrum Be prepared to defend your decision
Avoiding plagiarism is difficult but necessary
It requires that you do some lsquoresearchrsquo on how to
research
Most cases are accidental
You can even plagiarize yourself
Academic Integrity

lsquoPlagiarism is passing off someone elsersquos work whether intentionally or unintentionally as your own for your own benefitrsquo (Carroll 20029)
Our view of instances of plagiarism as ldquoviolations of honor and moralsrdquo is based on ldquocultural assumptionsrdquo that ldquotexts are their authorsrsquo personal propertyrdquo and using without citing is ldquostealingrdquo (Ramanathan amp Atkinson 2011 p 181)
IntentionalDeliberate Plagiarism Knowingly plagiarizing or intentionally presenting someone elsersquos ideas research or words as your own What might be some reasons

Who has time to summarizerdquo
Plagiarism Detection and Prevention 2001
bullDirectly copy without attribution blindly cut-
and-paste from numerous resources
bullImproperly summarize amp paraphrase donrsquot
change the terms AND sentence structure of the
original into their own words
bull Fail to give credit for otherrsquos ideas donrsquot
cite otherrsquos ideas or not citing directly after
the idea
bull Use improper citations provide false
information or not having all essential citation
information
Summarizing
What is summarizing
bull Taking a lager selection of a text and reducing
it to its most important points
bull Dropping all extra information and just getting
down to the main idea and the key points that
support that main idea
Why is summarizing important
bull It gives practice in expressing important ideas and finding main ideas
bull It is a way for monitoring onersquos own understanding
bull It is a way to learn about sequencing
Techniques for Summarizing an article
Read the article multiple times multiple ways
Scan the article first (headings captions pictures key
words)
Then read for depth
Read interactively
Allow enough time
bull Eliminate Wordiness
bull Use specific concrete language avoid vague references
bull Eg This () illustrates -vs- The framework illustrates
bull Rely primarily on paraphrasing not direct quoting
Pro Tip Keep taking notes in your own words Sticking closely to the original language appears you
donrsquot understand the study
Paraphrasing
What is paraphrasing
Restating otherrsquos ideas in your own words
Writing your interpretation of the authorrsquos meaning
Why is Paraphrasing important
bull It reduces the use of direct quotes
bull It presents the understanding of a text without copying someone elsersquos work
bull It gives a sense of fulfillment of the ethical responsibility as a student
bull Use synonyms
bull CAUTION You canrsquot just exchange a few words
bull Change numbers and percentages to different forms Eg (56 of the population over half 76 the majority)
bull Change the sentence structure and use different connecting words
In-Text Citation
How do I appropriately cite a source in the text
bull Include the authorrsquos last name and the year of
publication (Pavlov1890)
bull In case of direct quotation include the page number as
well (Pavlov 1890 p14)
Do I need to cite all the authors of the same article
bull It depends on how many authors there are If the info
you are citing has 6 or fewer authors you do have to
include all the names for citation the first time
bull After the first time you can list the first author
plus et al Example (Bailey et al 2001)
bull If there are 7 or more authors list the first six names
followed by ldquoet alrdquo
What if I find want to reference a secondary source
cited in another source
Give credit to the primary source citing for the
secondary source
Example I want to cite Trost 1986 - but I canrsquot
find the original I only have access to the
information in a secondary source ndash Beaujot 2000
Trost (1986) proposes that the customs and
connections keeping marriages together are no
longer as effective (as cited in Beaujot 2000)
Why should we use In-Text Citations
bull Gives credit to the source you are citing
bull Allows your reader to find your research
bull Gives you authority making it clear your ideas
are built on careful research and analysis
Learn how to use APA style effectively
Whether the author is alive or dead you
must give credit (cite source) if the idea is
not your own
Identifying Common Knowledge
bull Refers to information that the average educated reader would accept as reliable without having to look it up
bull Examples include
bull Information that most people know
bull Information shared by a cultural or national group
bull Knowledge shared by members of a certain field
Pro Tip
Keep in mind information that
may be common knowledge in
one culture nation academic
discipline MAY NOT be
common in another
How do I know if the information is common knowledge

Paraphrasing
What is paraphrasing
Restating otherrsquos ideas in your own words
Writing your interpretation of the authorrsquos meaning
Why is Paraphrasing important
bull It reduces the use of direct quotes
bull It presents the understanding of a text without copying someone elsersquos work
bull It gives a sense of fulfillment of the ethical responsibility as a student
bull Use synonyms
bull CAUTION You canrsquot just exchange a few words
bull Change numbers and percentages to different forms Eg (56 of the population over half 76 the majority)
bull Change the sentence structure and use different connecting words
In-Text Citation
How do I appropriately cite a source in the text
bull Include the authorrsquos last name and the year of
publication (Pavlov1890)
bull In case of direct quotation include the page number as
well (Pavlov 1890 p14)
Do I need to cite all the authors of the same article
bull It depends on how many authors there are If the info
you are citing has 6 or fewer authors you do have to
include all the names for citation the first time
bull After the first time you can list the first author
plus et al Example (Bailey et al 2001)
bull If there are 7 or more authors list the first six names
followed by ldquoet alrdquo
What if I find want to reference a secondary source
cited in another source
Give credit to the primary source citing for the
secondary source
Example I want to cite Trost 1986 - but I canrsquot
find the original I only have access to the
information in a secondary source ndash Beaujot 2000
Trost (1986) proposes that the customs and
connections keeping marriages together are no
longer as effective (as cited in Beaujot 2000)
Why should we use In-Text Citations
bull Gives credit to the source you are citing
bull Allows your reader to find your research
bull Gives you authority making it clear your ideas
are built on careful research and analysis
Learn how to use APA style effectively
Whether the author is alive or dead you
must give credit (cite source) if the idea is
not your own
Identifying Common Knowledge
bull Refers to information that the average educated reader would accept as reliable without having to look it up
bull Examples include
bull Information that most people know
bull Information shared by a cultural or national group
bull Knowledge shared by members of a certain field
Pro Tip
Keep in mind information that
may be common knowledge in
one culture nation academic
discipline MAY NOT be
common in another
How do I know if the information is common knowledge
You should consider
Who is my audience
What can I assume they already know
Will I be asked where I obtained my information
The following are examples of common knowledge
bull A description of Chomskyrsquos LAD (Linguistics)
bull Description of Aspergerrsquos Syndrome (Genetics)
Pro Tip
When in doubt cite your source
Which of the following do you think qualify as common
knowledge and why
Take 2 minutes to think decide and discuss with a
partner
1 Big-Bang theory posits that the universe began billions of years
ago with an enormous explosion
2 The first international coffee syndicate was based in Germany
3 George Washington was the first US president
4 The Chinese fishing industry produces 800000 of fish annually
What strategies do you use when writing paper or thesis
Practice note-taking skills (using your own words)
Cut-paste but with some steps to track sources Coloring quoting highlighting
Cite references as you go (track all sources in a table or excel)
Focus on keywordsideas when paraphrasing amp summarizing
Frequently check online resources for support (eg Purdue Owl see handout for a list)
Make appointments with your instructors for guidance

Focus groups have gained
considerable credibility during the
past twenty years through their
use in marketing activity and
other applied research settingsrsquo
Edwards and Talbot (1999) argue
that focus groups can be used in

to confirm the findings elicited

bull Gives credit to the source you are citing
bull Allows your reader to find your research
bull Gives you authority making it clear your ideas
are built on careful research and analysis
Learn how to use APA style effectively
Whether the author is alive or dead you
must give credit (cite source) if the idea is
not your own
Identifying Common Knowledge
bull Refers to information that the average educated reader would accept as reliable without having to look it up
bull Examples include
bull Information that most people know
bull Information shared by a cultural or national group
bull Knowledge shared by members of a certain field
Pro Tip
Keep in mind information that
may be common knowledge in
one culture nation academic
discipline MAY NOT be
common in another
How do I know if the information is common knowledge
You should consider
Who is my audience
What can I assume they already know
Will I be asked where I obtained my information
The following are examples of common knowledge
bull A description of Chomskyrsquos LAD (Linguistics)
bull Description of Aspergerrsquos Syndrome (Genetics)
Pro Tip
When in doubt cite your source
Which of the following do you think qualify as common
knowledge and why
Take 2 minutes to think decide and discuss with a
partner
1 Big-Bang theory posits that the universe began billions of years
ago with an enormous explosion
2 The first international coffee syndicate was based in Germany
3 George Washington was the first US president
4 The Chinese fishing industry produces 800000 of fish annually
What strategies do you use when writing paper or thesis
Practice note-taking skills (using your own words)
Cut-paste but with some steps to track sources Coloring quoting highlighting
Cite references as you go (track all sources in a table or excel)
Focus on keywordsideas when paraphrasing amp summarizing
Frequently check online resources for support (eg Purdue Owl see handout for a list)
Make appointments with your instructors for guidance
httpyoutube2q0NlWcTq1Y
In pairs or small groups you will review a studentrsquos attempt to work with an original source
Read the wording from the original source (in the box) then consider how this student used the source material (written below the box)
Tasks
Consider the place of your sample along a spectrum from NOT EFFECTIVE to EFFECTIVE source use
Make some notes with your partner(s) Choose one representative from your group to
place your sample on the spectrum Be prepared to defend your decision

down to the main idea and the key points that
support that main idea

donrsquot understand the study
Paraphrasing
What is paraphrasing
Restating otherrsquos ideas in your own words
Writing your interpretation of the authorrsquos meaning
Why is Paraphrasing important
bull It reduces the use of direct quotes
bull It presents the understanding of a text without copying someone elsersquos work
bull It gives a sense of fulfillment of the ethical responsibility as a student
bull Use synonyms
bull CAUTION You canrsquot just exchange a few words
bull Change numbers and percentages to different forms Eg (56 of the population over half 76 the majority)
bull Change the sentence structure and use different connecting words
In-Text Citation
How do I appropriately cite a source in the text
bull Include the authorrsquos last name and the year of
publication (Pavlov1890)
bull In case of direct quotation include the page number as
well (Pavlov 1890 p14)
Do I need to cite all the authors of the same article
bull It depends on how many authors there are If the info
you are citing has 6 or fewer authors you do have to
include all the names for citation the first time
bull After the first time you can list the first author
plus et al Example (Bailey et al 2001)
bull If there are 7 or more authors list the first six names
followed by ldquoet alrdquo
What if I find want to reference a secondary source
cited in another source
Give credit to the primary source citing for the
secondary source
Example I want to cite Trost 1986 - but I canrsquot
find the original I only have access to the
information in a secondary source ndash Beaujot 2000
Trost (1986) proposes that the customs and
connections keeping marriages together are no
longer as effective (as cited in Beaujot 2000)
Why should we use In-Text Citations
bull Gives credit to the source you are citing
bull Allows your reader to find your research
bull Gives you authority making it clear your ideas
are built on careful research and analysis
Learn how to use APA style effectively
Whether the author is alive or dead you
must give credit (cite source) if the idea is
not your own
Identifying Common Knowledge
bull Refers to information that the average educated reader would accept as reliable without having to look it up
bull Examples include
bull Information that most people know
bull Information shared by a cultural or national group
bull Knowledge shared by members of a certain field
Pro Tip
Keep in mind information that
may be common knowledge in
one culture nation academic
discipline MAY NOT be
common in another
How do I know if the information is common knowledge
You should consider
Who is my audience
What can I assume they already know
Will I be asked where I obtained my information
The following are examples of common knowledge
bull A description of Chomskyrsquos LAD (Linguistics)
bull Description of Aspergerrsquos Syndrome (Genetics)
Pro Tip
When in doubt cite your source
Which of the following do you think qualify as common
knowledge and why
Take 2 minutes to think decide and discuss with a
partner
1 Big-Bang theory posits that the universe began billions of years
ago with an enormous explosion
2 The first international coffee syndicate was based in Germany
3 George Washington was the first US president
4 The Chinese fishing industry produces 800000 of fish annually
What strategies do you use when writing paper or thesis
Practice note-taking skills (using your own words)
Cut-paste but with some steps to track sources Coloring quoting highlighting
Cite references as you go (track all sources in a table or excel)
Focus on keywordsideas when paraphrasing amp summarizing
Frequently check online resources for support (eg Purdue Owl see handout for a list)

Why is summarizing important
bull It gives practice in expressing important ideas and finding main ideas
bull It is a way for monitoring onersquos own understanding
bull It is a way to learn about sequencing
Techniques for Summarizing an article
Read the article multiple times multiple ways
Scan the article first (headings captions pictures key
words)
Then read for depth
Read interactively
Allow enough time
bull Eliminate Wordiness
bull Use specific concrete language avoid vague references
bull Eg This () illustrates -vs- The framework illustrates
bull Rely primarily on paraphrasing not direct quoting
Pro Tip Keep taking notes in your own words Sticking closely to the original language appears you
donrsquot understand the study
Paraphrasing
What is paraphrasing
Restating otherrsquos ideas in your own words
Writing your interpretation of the authorrsquos meaning
Why is Paraphrasing important
bull It reduces the use of direct quotes
bull It presents the understanding of a text without copying someone elsersquos work
bull It gives a sense of fulfillment of the ethical responsibility as a student
bull Use synonyms
bull CAUTION You canrsquot just exchange a few words
bull Change numbers and percentages to different forms Eg (56 of the population over half 76 the majority)
bull Change the sentence structure and use different connecting words
In-Text Citation
How do I appropriately cite a source in the text
bull Include the authorrsquos last name and the year of
publication (Pavlov1890)
bull In case of direct quotation include the page number as
well (Pavlov 1890 p14)
Do I need to cite all the authors of the same article
bull It depends on how many authors there are If the info
you are citing has 6 or fewer authors you do have to
include all the names for citation the first time
bull After the first time you can list the first author
plus et al Example (Bailey et al 2001)
bull If there are 7 or more authors list the first six names
followed by ldquoet alrdquo
What if I find want to reference a secondary source
cited in another source
Give credit to the primary source citing for the
secondary source
Example I want to cite Trost 1986 - but I canrsquot
find the original I only have access to the
information in a secondary source ndash Beaujot 2000
Trost (1986) proposes that the customs and
connections keeping marriages together are no
longer as effective (as cited in Beaujot 2000)
Why should we use In-Text Citations
bull Gives credit to the source you are citing
bull Allows your reader to find your research
bull Gives you authority making it clear your ideas
are built on careful research and analysis
Learn how to use APA style effectively
Whether the author is alive or dead you
must give credit (cite source) if the idea is
not your own
Identifying Common Knowledge
bull Refers to information that the average educated reader would accept as reliable without having to look it up
bull Examples include
bull Information that most people know
bull Information shared by a cultural or national group
bull Knowledge shared by members of a certain field
Pro Tip
Keep in mind information that
may be common knowledge in
one culture nation academic
discipline MAY NOT be
common in another
How do I know if the information is common knowledge
You should consider
Who is my audience
What can I assume they already know
Will I be asked where I obtained my information
The following are examples of common knowledge
bull A description of Chomskyrsquos LAD (Linguistics)
bull Description of Aspergerrsquos Syndrome (Genetics)
Pro Tip
When in doubt cite your source
Which of the following do you think qualify as common
knowledge and why
Take 2 minutes to think decide and discuss with a
partner
1 Big-Bang theory posits that the universe began billions of years
ago with an enormous explosion
2 The first international coffee syndicate was based in Germany
3 George Washington was the first US president
4 The Chinese fishing industry produces 800000 of fish annually
What strategies do you use when writing paper or thesis
Practice note-taking skills (using your own words)
Cut-paste but with some steps to track sources Coloring quoting highlighting
Cite references as you go (track all sources in a table or excel)
Focus on keywordsideas when paraphrasing amp summarizing
Frequently check online resources for support (eg Purdue Owl see handout for a list)
Make appointments with your instructors for guidance
httpyoutube2q0NlWcTq1Y
In pairs or small groups you will review a studentrsquos attempt to work with an original source
Read the wording from the original source (in the box) then consider how this student used the source material (written below the box)
Tasks
Consider the place of your sample along a spectrum from NOT EFFECTIVE to EFFECTIVE source use
Make some notes with your partner(s) Choose one representative from your group to
place your sample on the spectrum Be prepared to defend your decision
Avoiding plagiarism is difficult but necessary
It requires that you do some lsquoresearchrsquo on how to
research
Most cases are accidental
You can even plagiarize yourself
Academic Integrity
Citation
Proper summarizing
Paraphrasing
Plagiarism is a serious offense at most
institutions and in the professional world
Plagiarism is a form of cheating
AUA has policies on plagiarism (online) and
students are expected to abide by them
Possible Consequences
Failing the assignment or the class

Why is Paraphrasing important
bull It reduces the use of direct quotes
bull It presents the understanding of a text without copying someone elsersquos work
bull It gives a sense of fulfillment of the ethical responsibility as a student
bull Use synonyms
bull CAUTION You canrsquot just exchange a few words
bull Change numbers and percentages to different forms Eg (56 of the population over half 76 the majority)
bull Change the sentence structure and use different connecting words
In-Text Citation
How do I appropriately cite a source in the text
bull Include the authorrsquos last name and the year of
publication (Pavlov1890)
bull In case of direct quotation include the page number as
well (Pavlov 1890 p14)
Do I need to cite all the authors of the same article
bull It depends on how many authors there are If the info
you are citing has 6 or fewer authors you do have to
include all the names for citation the first time
bull After the first time you can list the first author
plus et al Example (Bailey et al 2001)
bull If there are 7 or more authors list the first six names
followed by ldquoet alrdquo
What if I find want to reference a secondary source
cited in another source
Give credit to the primary source citing for the
secondary source
Example I want to cite Trost 1986 - but I canrsquot
find the original I only have access to the
information in a secondary source ndash Beaujot 2000
Trost (1986) proposes that the customs and
connections keeping marriages together are no
longer as effective (as cited in Beaujot 2000)
Why should we use In-Text Citations
bull Gives credit to the source you are citing
bull Allows your reader to find your research
bull Gives you authority making it clear your ideas
are built on careful research and analysis
Learn how to use APA style effectively
Whether the author is alive or dead you
must give credit (cite source) if the idea is
not your own
Identifying Common Knowledge
bull Refers to information that the average educated reader would accept as reliable without having to look it up
bull Examples include
bull Information that most people know
bull Information shared by a cultural or national group
bull Knowledge shared by members of a certain field
Pro Tip
Keep in mind information that
may be common knowledge in
one culture nation academic
discipline MAY NOT be
common in another
How do I know if the information is common knowledge
You should consider
Who is my audience
What can I assume they already know
Will I be asked where I obtained my information
The following are examples of common knowledge
bull A description of Chomskyrsquos LAD (Linguistics)
bull Description of Aspergerrsquos Syndrome (Genetics)

What if I find want to reference a secondary source
cited in another source
Give credit to the primary source citing for the
secondary source
Example I want to cite Trost 1986 - but I canrsquot
find the original I only have access to the
information in a secondary source ndash Beaujot 2000
Trost (1986) proposes that the customs and
connections keeping marriages together are no
longer as effective (as cited in Beaujot 2000)
Why should we use In-Text Citations
bull Gives credit to the source you are citing
bull Allows your reader to find your research
bull Gives you authority making it clear your ideas
are built on careful research and analysis
Learn how to use APA style effectively
Whether the author is alive or dead you
must give credit (cite source) if the idea is
not your own
Identifying Common Knowledge
bull Refers to information that the average educated reader would accept as reliable without having to look it up
bull Examples include
bull Information that most people know
bull Information shared by a cultural or national group
bull Knowledge shared by members of a certain field
Pro Tip
Keep in mind information that
may be common knowledge in
one culture nation academic
discipline MAY NOT be
common in another
How do I know if the information is common knowledge
You should consider
Who is my audience
What can I assume they already know
Will I be asked where I obtained my information
The following are examples of common knowledge
bull A description of Chomskyrsquos LAD (Linguistics)
bull Description of Aspergerrsquos Syndrome (Genetics)
