  26. Paraphrasing • Reading information and putting it into your own words.

  27. 6 Steps to Effective Paraphrasing • Reread the original passage until you understand its full meaning. • Set the original aside, and write your paraphrase on a note card. • Jot down a few words below your paraphrase to remind you later how you envision using this material. At the top of the note card, write a key word or phrase to indicate the subject of your paraphrase. • Double check your interpretationwith the original to make sure that your version accurately expresses all the important information in a new form. • Use quotation marks if necessaryto identify any unique term or phraseology you have borrowed exactly from the source. • Record the source (including the page) on your note card so that you can credit it easily if you decide to incorporate the material into your paper.

  28. Plagiarism By: Mrs. Gehrt

  29. Notes • Copy the slides into your notebook • You can copy the information word for word or you can put it into your own words.

  30. What is Plagiarism? • Plagiarism is taking another person’s words (written or spoken), ideas, theories, facts (that are not considered general knowledge), statistics, art work, etc. and passing them off as your own.

  31. It is NOT okay to… • Change the language of the information you are using and pass it off as your own.

  32. You MUST… • Acknowledge the proper source, otherwise it is considered plagiarism.

  33. Avoiding Plagiarism • When borrowing another person’s words, use quotation marks and include a complete reference (author, name, date, pages, internet site)

  34. Just Remember… • Whenever you use any information that is not your own, be sure to reference the source, in other words CITE YOUR SOURCES!!!

  35. For Example: Entry-level teachers typically earn $35,000 to $45,000 a year, depending on location, seniority, level of education, and whether or not they are unionized. This statement IS NOT considered “common knowledge”

  36. Who said it? • In order to avoid plagiarism you must add who said it!

  37. The Correct Way • According to Career Cruising, “Entry-level teachers typically earn $35,000 to $45,000 a year, depending on location, seniority, level of education, and whether or not they are unionized.” (careercruising.com)

  38. What happens if I plagiarize? • Plagiarism is punishable by law! • Yes, that means you can be arrested and sentenced to jail time, and/or fined. • Most of the time, a teacher will simply fail you for the assignment, however in college you can fail a class for one plagiarized sentence. • In Mrs. Gehrt’s class you will fail the assignment if you plagiarize.

  39. Turnitin.com • Check your plagiarism report on www.turnitin.com • If your percentage is HIGH, and you didn’t properly cite your sources, you must go back and REVISE! • Create English Folders

  40. MLA- Modern Language Association

  41. What is MLA? • MLA is a list of guidelines you must use when writing a paper.

  42. Why use it? • The MLA guidelines are used to make writing uniform and to help students avoid plagiarism.

  43. Where are they? • The MLA guidelines are compiled in the MLA Handbook which can be found in any bookstore, library, or even online. • I will be providing you with the most important guidelines for your formal papers.

  44. Setting up a Document • Margins=1”. (Microsoft Word does this for you) • Font= 12, Times New Roman or Calibri. • No underlined, italicized or bold font is accepted • Double-spaced • Heading= • Your name • Teacher’s name • Date • Assignment • Paper title • Header=last name only and page number • Each paragraph should be indented five spaces (Use TAB). • No extra spacing between paragraphs.

  45. Documentation • MLA will help you document your sources. • Remember you must tell where you get your information to avoid plagiarism.

  46. For Example: • “Entry-level teachers typically earn $35,000 to $45,000 a year, depending on location, seniority, level of education, and whether or not they are unionized.” • Teachers who are just beginning in their field usually make about $40,000 a year. The teacher’s salary depends on where they are teaching and how much education they have. (careercruising.com)

  47. Using Quotes • “According to” (list the name of the source) • The quote • The source (in parentheses) • According to Career Cruising, “Entry-level teachers typically earn $35,000 to $45,000 a year, depending on location, seniority, level of education, and whether or not they are unionized.” (careercruising.com)

  48. Using Quotes Continued… • In the novel, Of Mice and Men, George says, “’Lennie, for God’ sakes don’t drink so much.’” (Steinbeck 3). This is a great example of how George takes care of Lennie, like a father would take care of his son. George says, “’Lennie. You gonna be sick like you was last night.’” (Steinbeck 3). George is aware that Lennie is not thinking about how the water could make him sick.
