24. Basic Stylistics in APA Voice and point of view ◦ First person point of view ◦ Distinguish between the research and the researchers ◦ Use pronouns when explaining about experiments (who did the experiment) ◦ Use active voice instead of passive voice

25. Tips on paraphrasing ◦ Read & understand  write your own sentence  mark same words from original source  double check the meaning ◦ Try to deliver your ideas and have the references to support your ideas (instead of listing the references to deliver the idea) ◦ Careful in using synonym (potentially change the meaning) ◦ Do not plagiarized yourself ◦ Paraphrase instead of quoting if the sentence is more than 40 words
