  1. Avoiding plagiarism by paraphrasing

  2. Organizing your paper… Organization Taking notes… Use quotes Include a complete citation Differentiation Identify and group material together Add it to a table, separated by key topics (Lipson, 2008; Writing Center, 2007; & Writing Tutorial Service, 2004)

  3. Writing • Use quotes • Paraphrase • Check • Cite (Writing Tutorial Service, 2004)

  4. Paraphrase Paraphrasing: Example 1 Original Passage Students frequently overuse direct quotation in taking notes, and as a result they overuse quotations in the final [research] paper. Probably only about 10% of your final manuscript should appear as directly quoted matter. Therefore, you should strive to limit the amount of exact transcribing of source materials while taking notes. Lester, James D. Writing Research Papers. 2nd ed. (1976): 46-47. Students often use too many direct quotations when they take notes, resulting in too many of them in the final research paper. In fact, probably only about 10% of the final copy should consist of directly quoted material. So it is important to limit the amount of source material copied while taking notes. (OWL, 2011)

  5. Paraphrased material Paraphrasing: Example 2 Original Passage Students frequently overuse direct quotation in taking notes, and as a result they overuse quotations in the final [research] paper. Probably only about 10% of your final manuscript should appear as directly quoted matter. Therefore, you should strive to limit the amount of exact transcribing of source materials while taking notes. Lester, James D. Writing Research Papers. 2nd ed. (1976): 46-47. In research papers students often quote excessively, failing to keep quoted material down to a desirable level. Since the problem usually originates during note taking, it is essential to minimize the material recorded verbatim (Lester 46-47). (OWL, 2011)
