Introduction
Contextualization
In today's digital age, effective communication requires the ability
to reference information accurately. Quoting, paraphrasing, and
summarizing are essential skills not only in academic writing but
also in everyday conversations, social media, and professional
settings.

Problem Situation
Imagine you are writing a paper about climate change and want
to use information from various sources. If you don't know how to
quote, paraphrase, or summarize correctly, you risk plagiarism or
misrepresenting the original ideas, which could lead to academic
penalties. How can you ensure you’re accurately reflecting these
sources in your work?
Quoting: The Art of
Exact Words

1. Quotations should be used sparingly and only when


the original wording is particularly impactful.

2. Proper citation is essential to credit the original


author and avoid plagiarism.

3. Introduce quotes with a signal phrase to integrate


them smoothly into your writing.
Examples and practical applications

For instance, in a research paper


about Martin Luther King Jr., you
might include, "I have a dream..." to
convey his exact words, emphasizing
the emotional weight of the
statement.
Paraphrasing:
Rephrasing with Clarity

1. Effective paraphrasing requires a thorough


understanding of the source material.

2. Always cite the source even when paraphrasing to


give credit to the original author.

3. Use paraphrasing to clarify complex ideas or


incorporate them into your arguments.
Examples and practical applications

In discussing the importance of


education, instead of quoting a
lengthy text, you might say,
"Education equips individuals with
the necessary skills and knowledge
for personal and professional
success," effectively summarizing
the original sentiment.
Summarizing:
Condensing Information

1. A summary should capture only the main ideas and


omit irrelevant details.

2. Ensure the summary reflects the original source's


tone and intent.

3. Summaries are useful for providing context in


research and supporting your arguments.
Examples and practical applications

If summarizing a lengthy article


about renewable energy, you might
write, "The article outlines the
benefits of solar and wind energy in
reducing carbon footprint and
promoting sustainability," effectively
encapsulating the key points.
Practical Application:
Combining Techniques

1. Use quotes to provide evidence, paraphrase to


simplify complex ideas, and summarize for context.

2. Incorporating all three techniques in your work can


improve readers' understanding.

3. Developing these skills benefits both academic


performance and professional writing.
Examples and practical applications

When writing an essay on


environmental policy, you could
quote a statistic, paraphrase a key
argument, and summarize the
overall findings of your research,
demonstrating proficiency in all
three techniques.
Conclusion 1. Quoting, paraphrasing, and summarizing are key
