PARAPHRASING, SUMMARIZING AND QUOTING
Guidelines for paraphrasing Paraphrase = Restating ideas of
source in detail Use when the language of the
original is wordy, dull, technical or convoluted.
Guidelines for paraphrasing Read the passage until you
understand it. Jot down the main idea and list
supporting points. As you paraphrase, follow the
order and emphasis of the original. Document your source.
Guidelines for summarizing Summary = Restate main idea in
your own words Use to briefly explain a longer
work.
Guidelines for summarizing Read the passage until you
understand it. Jot down the main ideas. As you summarize, make sure
you use your own words, not those of your source.
Document the source.
Guidelines for quoting Quoting = The author’s exact
words as they appeared in the source.
Guidelines for quoting Quote when the author’s words are
so memorable that paraphrasing would lessen the impact.
Quote when a paraphrase or summary would change the meaning.
Quote when the original language adds authority to your discussion.
Guidelines for quoting Special rule for quoting poetry:
Insert a slash / at the end of each line of the poem you are quoting.
Anzaldua uses vivid language, writing to open the second verse, “I got to the farm / in time to hear the shots / ricochet off barn” (146).
