Paraphrasing
is putting into your own words someone else’s idea or words. If the
student paraphrases the quoted material from her notes, she does not need
to use quotation marks as she is paraphrasing. However, whether it is a
direct quote or paraphrased, she must cite the source as the idea belongs
to someone else and that person needs to be given credit. If the student
does not cite the source when using someone else’s ideas or words,
either verbatim or paraphrased, then she is plagiarizing. |
