Identifying Plagiarism and Quoting

9.24.12

Today is the first day of our plagiarism unit, which also means it's the last day we'll work on the diagnostic essay. The next major writing we'll work on is summary writing. Knowing how to cite sources correctly (quote, paraphrase, and summarize) is key to writing an effective summary. We'll go over each type of citation briefly, focusing today on quoting.

Knowing how to cite sources correctly means that you won't be plagiarizing unintentionally--that's something we'll be sure you understand by the end of the course.
