My way of explaining citation to my students: a citation is like the source's address--you're telling your reader where you went to find your information, and how they can get there, too.

LITERARY ANALYSIS THESIS STATEMENTS
A thesis in a literary analysis or literary research paper can take many forms.
The thesis statement is one of the (if not the) most important parts of your paper. Think
of it as the foundation of a house. If your foundation is weak and poorly constructed,
what do you think happens to the house?
The thesis statement is the announcement of your analytical argument that you intend to
make and prove in the duration of your paper. It is a road map for the paper—it tells the
reader what to expect from the rest of the paper.
It should be placed somewhere in the introduction of your paper. Many like to put it as
the last sentence(s) of their introductory paragraph which is fine. A thesis statement is
usually, but can be more than, one sentence long.
Your thesis statement should include two parts: WHAT and WHY.
o WHAT: What claim are you making about the text?
o WHY: Why should we care? Why is your claim important? Your thesis should
answer the “so what?” question.
SAMPLE THESIS STATEMENTS
These sample thesis statements are provided as guides, not as required forms or prescriptions.
#1 The thesis may focus on an analysis of one of the elements of fiction, drama, poetry or
nonfiction as expressed in the work: character, plot, structure, idea, theme, symbol, style,
imagery, tone, etc.
Example:
In “A Worn Path,” Eudora Welty creates a fictional character in Phoenix Jackson whose
determination, faith, and cunning illustrate the indomitable human spirit.
Note that the work, author, and character to be analyzed are identified in this thesis statement.
The thesis relies on a strong verb (creates). It also identifies the element of fiction that the writer
will explore (character) and the characteristics the writer will analyze and discuss
(determination, faith, cunning).
Further Examples:
The character of the nurse in Romeo and Juliet, who serves as a foil to young Juliet, delights the
reader with her warmth and earthy wit, and helps realize the tragic catastrophe.
The works of ecstatic love poets Rumi, Hafiz, and Kabir use symbols such as a lover’s longing
and the Tavern of Ruin to illustrate the human soul’s desire to connect with God.

#2 The thesis may focus on illustrating how a work reflects the particular genre’s forms,
the characteristics of a philosophy of literature, or the ideas of a particular school of
thought.
Example:
“The Third and Final Continent” exhibits characteristics recurrent in writings by immigrants:
tradition, adaptation, and identity.
Note how the thesis statement classifies the form of the work (writings by immigrants) and
identifies ...

Original source (text)
Kernan, A. (1979).The playwright as magician. New Haven: Yale University Press.
From time to time this submerged or latent theater in becomes almost overt. It is close to the surface in Hamlet’s pretense of madness, the “antic disposition” he puts on to protect himself and prevent his antagonists from plucking out the heart of his mystery. It is even closer to the surface when Hamlet enters his mother’s room and holds up, side by side, the pictures of the two kings, Old Hamlet and Claudius, and proceeds to describe for her the true nature of the choice she has made, presenting truth by means of a show. Similarly, when he leaps into the open grave at Ophelia’s funeral, ranting in high heroic terms, he is acting out for Laertes, and perhaps for himself as well, the folly of excessive, melodramatic expressions of grief.
Student 1 Passage:
Almost all of Shakespeare’s Hamlet can be understood as a play about acting and the theater. For example, there is Hamlet’s pretense of madness, the “antic disposition” that he puts on to protect himself and prevent his antagonists from plucking out the heart of his mystery. When Hamlet enters his mother’s room, he holds up, side by side, the pictures of the two kings, Old Hamlet and Claudius, and proceeds to describe for her the true nature of the choice she has made, presenting truth by means of a show. Similarly, when he leaps into the open grave at Ophelia’s funeral, ranting in high heroic terms, he is acting out for Laertes, and perhaps for himself as well, the folly of excessive, melodramatic expressions of grief.
Type of plagiarism present: Verbatim plagiarism
Explanation:
The opening sentence is adapted from the original text and loosely reworded. The entire passage is taken almost word-for-word from the source. The rest of the paper is copied word-for-word from the source. This means the student used direct quote but failed to acknowledge the author which amounts to verbatim plagiarism. Although the student changed a few words, this does not justify the student for failing to give credit as required. When direct quotes are needed to expla an idea precisely, they should be quotation marks and appropriately cited to point out that the words and ideas presented are not original.
Student passage 2 –
Almost all of Shakespeare’s Hamlet can be understood as a play about acting and the theater. For example, in Act 1, Hamlet adopts a pretense of madness that he uses to protect himself and prevent his antagonists from discovering his mission to revenge his father’s murder. He also presents truth by means of a show when he compares the portraits of Gertrude’s two husbands in order to describe for her the true nature of the choice she has made. And when he leaps in Ophelia’s open grave ranting in high heroic terms, Hamlet is acting out the folly of excessive, melodramatic expressions of grief.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Cite Your Sources: Techniques to Avoid Plagiarism and Properly Cite Quotations and Ideas in Research Papers
1. CITE YOUR SOURCES Techniques to Avoid Plagiarism and Properly Cite Quotations and Ideas in Research Papers By Rebecca Buerkett MLIS Student, Syracuse University Intern, Lake Placid Middle/High School April 2009
2. Direct Quotes See NoodleTools Knowledge Base for Instructions: http://www.noodletools.com/helpdesk/index.php?action=kb&article=53 Use quotation marks to denote the quotation or key phrase(s). Example: “ Affliction is enamour'd of thy parts, And thou art wedded to calamity” (Shakespeare 139). Shakespeare, William. Romeo and Juliet . New York: Washington Square Press,1992.
3. Direct Quotes If the quote is more than a sentence long, indent the passage from the rest of the text, and you don’t need quotation marks. Example: In the Prologue of Romeo and Juliet, Shakespeare states: Two households, both alike in dignity, In fair Verona, where we lay our scene, From ancient grudge break to new mutiny, Where civil blood makes civil hands unclean. (Shakespeare 7) Shakespeare, William. Romeo and Juliet . New York: Washington Square Press,1992.
4. Direct Quotes: Book vs. Complete Works of Shakespeare Online “ Romeo and Juliet.” The Complete Works of William Shakespeare . Web. 27 Apr 2009. < http://shakespeare.mit.edu/romeo_juliet/index.html > Book Citation In the Prologue of Act 2, it is made clear that Romeo and Juliet can’t deny their passion for one another, or their desire for a meeting: “But passion lends them power, time means, to meet/Tempering extremities with extreme sweet” (65). Web Citation As illustrated in The Complete Works of Shakespeare Online , in the Prologue of Act 2 of Romeo and Juliet , it is made clear that Romeo and Juliet can’t deny their passion for one another, or their desire for a meeting: “But passion lends them power, time means, to meet/Tempering extremities with extreme sweet.” Shakespeare, William. Romeo and Juliet . New York: Washington Square Press,1992.
5. Writing About Another's Ideas Even if it isn’t a direct quote, if it is someone else’s idea, you have to cite it using a parenthetical citation. Example: According to “Romeo and Juliet” in Shakespearean Criticism , modern-day directors have found that themes in Romeo and Juliet are easy for contemporary audiences to relate to, in terms of racial, ethnic, and socioeconomic issues (208). "Romeo and Juliet." Shakespearean Criticism . Ed. Michelle Lee. Vol. 118. Detroit: Gale, Cengage Learning, 2009. 207-313. Literature Resource Center . Gale. Lake Placid Middle/High School Lib., Lake Placid, NY. 27 Apr. 2009 <http://access.gale.com/k12trial/go/?key=12860_186151>.
6. If you need to clarify a word or context in a quote, use brackets [] Example: Original: Because the play has always been popular with audiences, some scholars have refused to take Romeo and Juliet too seriously. They sometimes dismiss it as Shakespeare’s trashy blockbuster, not complicated enough to be "high art.“ Quote: According to the Romeo and Juliet article in Shmoop.com, “[Scholars] sometimes dismiss it as Shakespeare’s trashy blockbuster, not complicated enough to be ‘high art.’” But be sure to avoid changing the context of the passage. Example: OK: Kozol claims there are "savage inequalities" in our educational system, which is obvious (240). WRONG: Kozol claims there are "[obvious] savage inequalities" in our educational system (240).
7. If you need to shorten a quote or just use part of it, use ellipsis points (...) to indicate omitted text. Example: “ Orchestra was written in 1594, probably before Romeo and Juliet …” so it is unlikely that Romeo and Juliet influenced its writing (“Romeo and Juliet” in Shakespearean Criticism 209). "Romeo and Juliet." Shakespearean Criticism . Ed. Michelle Lee. Vol. 118. Detroit: Gale, Cengage Learning, 2009. 207-313. Literature Resource Center . Gale.

13. How would you fix this? In the play, when Capulet said of Juliet, Let two more summers wither in their pride, Ere we may think her ripe to be a bride, he meant that he did not wish his daughter to marry before she turned sixteen. Shakespeare, William. Romeo and Juliet . New York: Washington Square Press,1992.

15. How would you fix this? I agree with “Romeo and Juliet” in Shakespearean Criticism that Romeo and Juliet is more than simply a lesson in prudence. "Romeo and Juliet." Shakespearean Criticism .

17. How would you fix this? According to “Romeo and Juliet” in Shakespearean Criticism , Shakespeare often uses dancing as a way to end a play on an upbeat note after too much tragedy (211). For example, Much Ado About Nothing and A Midsummer Night’s Dream end in dancing. The opposite can be said for dueling, which is a sign of more solemnity to come. "Romeo and Juliet." Shakespearean Criticism . Ed. Michelle Lee. Vol. 118. Detroit: Gale, Cengage Learning, 2009. 207-313. Literature Resource Center . Gale.

24. Plagiarism vs. Paraphrasing Consider the following example (from Montgomery County Public Schools*) During the next few years the personal computer explodes on the American scene. Microsoft, Apple and many smaller PC related companies form (and some die). By 1977 stores begin to sell PC's. Continuing today, companies strive to reduce the size and price of PC's while increasing capacity. Entering the fray, IBM introduces its PC in 1981 (it's actually IBM's second attempt, but the first failed miserably). Time selects the computer as its Man of the Year in 1982. Tron, a computer-generated special effects extravaganza is released the same year. Montgomery County Public Schools. Plagiarism Activity . 26 Apr 2009 < http://www. montgomeryschoolsmd.org/schools/kingsviewms/arts/plagiarism.htm >
25. Which is paraphrased and which is plagiarized? Example #1 During the next couple of years, millions of people in America begin to love computers. Apple, Microsoft, and many other smaller companies(most of which fail) hit the scene. In 1977 stores began to sell computers, still today companies strive to reduce the price and size of computers while increasing the capacity. IBM introduced its second attempt at a computer in 1981. Time selected the computer as its Man of the Year in 1982. A computer effects extravaganza, named Tron, is released the same year. Example #2 During the late 70ís and early 80’s computers "explode on the American scene". Several companies formed and competed to make the computer that was the smallest and least costly, but would have more capabilities. IBM introduced its second computer in 1982. This was the first computer that people would buy, and it sold extremely well. Even Time Magazine recognized the computer’s great accomplishments by awarding the computer with its Man of the Year award in 1982. To show how much computers could already do, a "computer effects extravaganza" is also released that year. Montgomery County Public Schools.
