What is it?  Stealing!  Claiming someone else’s work as your own PLAGIARISM

Why does it happen?  Unintentionally…not deliberately  Not understanding the text - unable to express the ideas in your own words  Not making a note of the reference when you first come across it

Academic plagiarism Other people’s ideas… We read them in texts We hear about them in lectures We discuss them in class We use them in our writing

Give credit where credit is due… Cite your source even if you have paraphrased Cite your source if your have mentioned another person’s idea Cite your source if you have used statistics

What is paraphrasing… Using your own words to explain someone else’s ideas. Keeping the meaning the same.

Why paraphrase? It demonstrates you understand what you have read; It demonstrates you understand the ideas. It shows effective summarising skills.

Paraphrasing… Read what you want to paraphrase Make sure you understand the text Close the book Write out the idea in your own words Use a thesuarus Be sure you are not just rearranging the words Check your words are different to the original text Don’t forget to cite the author at the end of your sentence (eg, Donatelle, 2007) AND include in the reference list.

Paraphrasing checklist Include a reference Is written in your own words Has quotation marks around any exact phrases from the original text Accurately reflects the author’s meaning

Getting a good grade! Supporting your views with expert opinions demonstrates that you have read widely Using information from a variety of sources shows you understand the topic “They say…I say…” Develop your own writing style

Don’t forget! Use quotation marks for direct quotes Use in-text referencing Provide a reference list Use APA referencing Don’t’ plagiarise!
