3 Who is going to help me if I don’t know how to do it? Hint: ask Ms. HK or Ms. Johnson How do I know when to cite? Why do I have to cite sources in my research paper?

4 Academic Integrity Authority Prevent Plagiarism Identify the sources used Purposes for citing your sources

5

6 According to the Dictionary: to steal and pass off (the ideas or words of another) as one's own to use (another's production) without crediting the source to commit literary theft to present as new and original an idea or product derived from an existing source. In other words, plagiarism is an act of fraud. It involves both stealing someone else's work and lying about it afterward, intentionally or unintentionally.

7 All of the following are considered plagiarism: turning in someone else's work as your own copying words or ideas from someone else without giving credit failing to put a quotation in quotation marks giving incorrect information about the source of a quotation changing words but copying the sentence structure of a source without giving credit copying so many words or ideas from a source that it makes up the majority of your work, whether you give credit or not

9 CITE DO NOT CITE When to cite your sources Author’s idea Author’s thought Author’s opinion Author’s research Quotations Summary of someone else’s work or research Other people’s artwork, pictures, illustrations, etc. Common knowledge Your ideas Your thoughts Your opinions Your own artwork, pictures, illustrations, etc.

10 What is common knowledge? Common knowledge is information that OUR GROUP knows and understands. Our group consists of you, your classmates, and Ms. HK/Ms. Johnson. Examples of common knowledge: Elie Wiesel is the author of Night. Elie Wiesel survived the Holocaust. Jewish people were held prisoner and often killed at concentration camps. The Holocaust occurred during WWII and targeted many people, primarily Jews.

12 In-text citation Pointing to where you got your information from (data, ideas, quotes, images, facts) inside the body of the text. Works Cited A list of all the resources that were cited in the assignment. Often appears at the very end of the paper. For research papers, you should include BOTH.

13 For books: - Last name of author - Page number

14 For books: Example: Following a quote or idea from Elie Wiesel’s book Night on page 51, use: (Wiesel 51) The Works Cited entry would look like this: Wiesel, Elie. Night. New York: Hill and Wang, 2006. Print.

15 For websites: - Last name of author - Title of article (if no author is given) - Title of webpage (if no author or article title is given)

16 For websites with an author: Example: Following a quote or idea from Douglas O. Linder’s online article “The Nuremberg Trials: The Doctors Trial” use: (Linder) The Works Cited entry would look like this: Linder, Douglas O. "The Neuremberg Trials: The Doctors Trials." UMKC. UMKC School of Law. Web. 7 Nov 2012.

17 For websites without an author: Example: Following a quote or idea from the online article (with no author) “Liberation of Nazi Camps,” use: (“Liberation of Nazi Camps”) The Works Cited entry would look like this: "Liberation of Nazi Camps." USHMM. United States Holocaust Memorial Museum, 11 2012. Web. 7 Nov 2012

19 Using author’s name and a quote. In Night, Elie Wiesel described the dentist character as having “a face not unlike a death mask” (51). Using a quote. The character of the dentist “had a face not unlike a death mask” (Wiesel 51). Note: Only use a quote if you are positive that you cannot say it better in your own words. Keep it short and specific.

20 Using author’s name and author’s idea. Wiesel often used similes to enhance descriptions of characters, such as comparing a dentist’s face to a death mask (51). Using author’s idea. Similes can be used to enhance descriptions of characters, such as comparing a dentist’s face to a death mask (Wiesel 51).

21 Original Information from website: “In 1956, while he was in New York reporting on the United Nations, Elie Wiesel was struck by a taxi cab. His injuries confined him to a wheelchair for almost a year. Unable to renew the French document which had allowed him to travel as a "stateless" person, Wiesel applied successfully for American citizenship.” What you wrote in your paper: “While he was in New York reporting, Elie Wiesel was hit by a taxi cab. His injuries confined him to a wheelchair for almost a year. Wiesel applied successfully for American citizenship, because he was unable to renew the French document which had allowed him to travel as a "stateless" person.”

22 Was that YOUR idea? Or the AUTHOR’S?

23 Would this be okay? In 1956, Elie Wiesel was hit by a taxi. His injuries kept him in a wheelchair for over a year and left him unable to renew his papers. As a result, he applied for and received American citizenship. Are these YOUR ideas? Or the AUTHOR’S? How can I make this okay?

25 While research is important, YOUR IDEAS are what I’m interested in for the summative assignment. Only use research that supports and/or proves your main idea.

26

27 You MUST cite quotes and ideas from other authors. Failing to do so is PLAGIARISM, which is not only a poor way of writing, but is also academic dishonesty, which can result in major penalties here at school. Changing a few words or reordering the sentences is still plagiarism because those are not your own words or ideas. Think about your resources. How are they helping to ADD to your points and ideas? How can you go on to explain the importance of your source’s quotes and ideas in your own words?

28 Don’t be terrified: just be honest. If it’s your idea, great. If it’s someone else’s information, that’s probably okay, but you must give credit. When in doubt, ask yourself: Is it clear where my information came from?
