Warming up ActivityAnswer the following questions on a sheet of paper. Do not answer with “I don’t know”; instead, talk about what you

think a writer does. It’s good to start with what we already know or assume:• When do we paraphrase?• How do we paraphrase?• Can we switch words around?• How do we cite our paraphrases?• How is paraphrase different than quote?

Note: Please do not look anything up with this part. You are thinking about what you already know or have heard about integrating sources into your texts.

What is a Paraphrase?

Paraphrasing is when we borrow ideas, language, or phrases from another person’s text; we write these using our own language and sentence patterns

Paraphrasing a text (such as a movie, an article, a book chapter, or a song) helps the reader grasp the important parts without having to read the source.

Paraphrasing

To paraphrase is to say the same thing in another way, using your own words.

We can successfully paraphrase by using a combination of techniques.

Why Do We Paraphrase?

Paraphrasing allows the reader to trust the writer. We walk away from our reading informed, and we have confidence in the researcher because she knows her source materials.

Most of your research writing will include paraphrasing.

Paraphrase is used more than summary and quotes, Because paraphrase gives more detail than summary and allows more insight and paraphrase prevents overreliance on quoting and shows an author’s careful consideration of the particular source

Reviewing When to Quote

As a review, writers use quotes sparingly and only with the following rules:• Quoting an authority (who is absolutely necessary to include in

the paper).• Using necessary dialogue.• Highlighting necessary bias or opposite opinions.• Analyzing unusual language.

Ask your instructor for any other times to quote.

Important Thing to Remember about Paraphrasing

Use only important information

Paraphrasing is better than quoting too much.

We must use our own voice and words

Three Paraphrasing RulesWe are allowed to use common terms, such as the author’s name or topic. No quotation marks are necessary when we use these.

If we borrow any key words, we must put them in quotations.

We must box in the source by introducing source first and then citing at the end.
