This document outlines the difference between paraphrasing and summarizing and provides guidance on how to do each effectively. Paraphrasing rewrites information in one's own words while maintaining the original meaning, often using synonyms and passive voice. Summarizing concisely captures the main idea and key points in fewer words than the original. Both require maintaining the original meaning and certainty while changing most of the words. Students should practice paraphrasing and rewriting summaries to avoid directly copying or "patchworking" from sources.
The presentation discusses about plagiarism, reasons for plagiarism cases, why knowledge about plagiarism is so important, the repercussion of wrong writing practices, penalties, ways to avoid plagiarism, and what are anti-plagiarism software available.

You must have heard about proofreading and editing several times, but do you really know whether they are the same or different? If you also believe these two tasks are the same, then, you need to change that thought immediately. Yes! Both are completely different. There are significant differences between proofreading and editing. To develop a refined and superior-quality paper, both of these processes are very important. If you are still confused about the two, then, read this blog.

CHAPTER 6
Using Sources Effectively
The abilities to find and document sources and to develop an argument about or
interpretation of them have many applications in school and on the job. The genres of
researched writing used in academic disciplines include the argumentative research
paper (often called a term paper), the proposal, the annotated bibliography, the book
review, the literature review, the personal research report (often called an "I-Search"
paper, the name given to it by Ken Macrorie, an early advocate of this genre). You may be
asked to a build a Web site based on library research. You may be asked to simply report
on your research, or to use it as a starting point for experimentation or observation in the
laboratory or on field observations. Usually oral presentations and the visuals that sup-
port them are rooted in extensive research. Research reports in the sciences (lab reports)
and social sciences, although their formats differ from papers in the humanities, usually
begin with a review of the previous research that led to the hypothesis currently under
investigation. All these genres of researched writing involve similar strategies for find-
ing and evaluating sources, taking notes, and using quotations, summaries, and para-
phrases skillfully. However, when and how sources are used and how they are cited vary
for different kinds of writing and from field to field. Thus, these general information
literacy and research writing skills must be adapted to meet discipline-specific expecta-
tions for format, style, and means of presentation in specific academic fields.
SKILLS FOR ACADEMIC INQUIRY: QUOTATION,
PARAPHRASE, SUMMARY, AND SYNTHESIS
There are four basic means for using sources when writing researched papers and reports:
quotation, paraphrase, summary, and synthesis. These techniques help writers progress
from taking notes to drafting. It is always necessary to cite sources as you use them and to
consistently distinguish between your own words and ideas and those of your sources.
1. Quotations are exact repetitions of a writer's work. Quotations are less often used
in disciplines that use APA (American Psychological Association) style than those
who use MLA (Modern Language Association) style because arguments in most
101
102 Chapter 6 • Using Sources Effectively
disciplines that use APA depend more on summary and synthesis of previous
research than on close analysis of texts.
2. Paraphrases are restatements of the writer's ideas in your own words, following
the source closely in the order in which an argument is developed or evidence is
laid out. Paraphrases must be clearly identified as such, by direct attribution to the
author, because they can be mistaken for your own thinking.
3. Summaries give an overall representation of a writer's argument or part of one,
and also must ...
In the Reading Comprehension Skills, Paraphrasing and Summarising have important roles. They bring ahead the understanding and expressiveness of the reader when he writes the Summary or Paraphrase.
Writing information in your own words is a highly acceptable way to include the ideas of other
people in your writing. There are two ways you can do this: paraphrasing and summarising. It is
very important, however, to paraphrase and summarise correctly because there is a fine balance
between acceptable and unacceptable paraphrasing and summarising (plagiarism). You need to
learn the rules so you are able:
1. To paraphrase information
2. To summarise information

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

3. Paraphrasing
To paraphrase is to rewrite something 'in your own words'.
• Lecturers like to see you using paraphrasing in your writing
it demonstrates what you know and understand about their
(because it is in your own words).
• Most of your academic reading texts are made up of paraphrases.
Any information in a paragraph that does not have quotation
marks and is referenced is either a paraphrase or a summary.
4. Paraphrasing
Students often experience difficulties writing acceptable paraphrases. In
their studies of student essay writing problems, Brown and Smith (2006)
observe that the most common paraphrasing error made by students was
that they only changed a few of the writer’s words. They also noted that
this practice was a particular problem with internet users who copied and
pasted information from web sites. Even if this paraphrased text is
referenced, it is not an acceptable practice as the words and sentences are
also almost the same as the original text (Johnson & Jackson, 2006).
Therefore students who lack mastery in paraphrasing may experience
problems with avoiding plagiarism. (106 words)
5. Paraphrasing
Successful paraphrasing depends on the writer’s ability to rephrase the original author’s
words into their own, but also maintain the same meaning.
Two simple ways of rephrasing are to use synonyms and the passive voice.
• A) A group of US researchers has carried out trials on a new vaccine.
• B) An unhealthy lifestyle can be the cause of many diseases.

6. Paraphrasing
Practice paraphrasing these sentences in your own words by using synonyms
and/or passive voice.
1. We need more proof that active learning really works.
2. They will build a huge medical center on the old site in the near future.
3. The organizers cancelled the talk because the main speaker was ill.
7. Paraphrasing
For ALL paraphrases:
• Keep the meaning the same as the original
writing
• Change most of the words except for technical
terms
• Restructure the sentence patterns
• Blend with the sentence (use reporting words)
• Use strong/weak author to acknowledge the
source
• Reference the source/s of information
8. Paraphrasing
Don't do this!
• Don't just change a couple of words from your information source and think
that it is an acceptable paraphrase—adding a reference makes no difference!
Either use a direct quote (the author's EXACT words) or change the words of the
author significantly so that it is a correct paraphrase.
• Don't just switch around sentence parts from your information source and add a
reference, then think that it is an acceptable paraphrase—adding a reference
makes no difference! Either use a direct quote (the author's EXACT words) or
change the sentences significantly so that it a correct paraphrase.
• Avoid patchworking (cutting and pasting and copying bits of information from a
variety of sources and connecting it all together in a paragraph, usually without
references). It is a GOOD strategy to use information from different sources in a
paragraph but you must paraphrase and reference each and every piece of
evidence correctly.
9. Summarizing
Summaries of material may be used to give an overview of an author’s
work.
• Because they are very brief outlines of arguments made, they are
very useful when you want to indicate the support given for and/or
against some position you are taking in your argument.
• In your writing you may make a summary from:
• one or more paragraphs
• an entire article, chapter or complete work
• a combination of readings with similar ideas
• You can get an idea from your reading as to whether an author has
used a direct quote, paraphrase or summary to support their
argument.
11. Summarizing
For ALL summaries:
• Keep the meaning and degree of certainty the
same as the original writing
• Put the main idea and key points into your own
words
• Expect that length of your summary will be very
short compared to the original writing
• Blend with the sentence (use reporting words)
• Use strong/weak author to acknowledge the
source
• Reference the source/s of information
12. Summarizing
Don't do this!
• Don't sacrifice CLARITY (clear writing) by clogging your writing up
with too many details. You need to get to the essence of what the
writer has to say in as few words as possible.
• Don't do a one-off summary. You need to have several tries at a
good summary. Keep checking against the original to ensure that
you have maintained the message and captured the surety of the
writer (how committed the writer is to their opinion).
