Learning Target: Students will gather information from digital sources and avoid plagiarism by citing sources.
Warm-up: Number One-Five and answer the following questions about MLA format.

2. What four things do you find in the heading of a MLA paper?
3. What are the rules about font and spacing?
4. What are the two major parts of MLA format?
5. Why do you need to cite your sources?

4. Direct Quotes
A direct quote is a word for word copy of source material. The quote is enclosed in quotation marks. Include the author's last name and date of publication as well as page numbers if available.
Examples
Joseph Conrad writes of the company manager in Heart of Darkness, "He was obeyed, yet he inspired neither love nor fear, nor even respect" (87).
"The red tree vole is a crucial part of the spotted owl's diet" (Moone 15).

5. Block Quote
The block quote is used for direct quotations that are longer than 4 lines. Indent the entire quote 1 inch or spaces.
Example:
At the conclusion of Lord of the Flies, Ralph and the other boys realize the horror of their actions:
The tears began to flow and sobs shook him. He gave himself up to them now for the first time on the island; great, shuddering spasms of grief that seemed to wrench his whole body. His voice rose under the black smoke before the burning wreckage of the island; and infected by that emotion, the other little boys began to shake and sob too. (186)

6. Paraphrase
A paraphrase is a quotation rewritten in your own words. A summary is a condensed version of a longer passage from an outside source. Both require citations. Include the author's name and the page number.
Examples:
Oregon salmon populations have dramatically declined in the past decade (Lenz 27).
Kafka describes the insecurities of his youth, analyzing his social shortcomings in school and his rocky relationship with his father (44-46).

11. Jimi Hendrix Impact on Society
The Hendrix fascination is as alive today as it ever was, and for good reason: Hendrix's revolutionary music, such as the dissonant pageantry of his "Star-Spangled Banner," is still some of the most radical and subversive in American rock canon. He pioneered new musical technologies, styles and techniques, which helped lay the groundwork for new musical genres. His genre-pushing also gave way to important conversations that have redefined the way we discuss race in music. Hendrix's impact on music history is so vast and multifaceted, we often forget his career only spanned four years. In those four years, he became the most influential guitar player who ever lived.
