9 Source Integration

10 Why Source Integration? Quotations, paraphrases, and summaries provide support for claims or add credibility to your writing refer to work that leads up to the work you are now doing give examples of several points of view on a subject call attention to a position that you wish to agree or disagree with highlight a particularly striking phrase, sentence, or passage by quoting the original distance yourself from the original by quoting it in order to cue readers that the words are not your own expand the breadth or depth of your writing --Quoting, paraphrasing, and summarizing. (2004). Purdue University Online Writing Lab. Retrieved September 28, 2007, from --p APA 6e

11 Choosing Text to Integrate 1. Read the entire text, noting the key points and main ideas. 2. Summarize in your own words what the single main idea of the essay is. 3. Paraphrase important supporting points that come up in the essay. 4. Consider any words, phrases, or brief passages that you believe should be quoted directly. --Quoting, paraphrasing, and summarizing. (2004). Purdue University Online Writing Lab. Retrieved September 28, 2007, from --p APA 6e

12 Summarizing When you summarize, you put the main idea(s) into your own words, including only the main point(s). Summarized ideas must be attributed to the original source. Summaries are significantly shorter than the original. Summaries take a broad overview of source material. --Quoting, paraphrasing, and summarizing. (2004). Purdue University Online Writing Lab. Retrieved September 28, 2007, from --p APA 6e

13 Paraphrasing Paraphrasing involves putting a passage from source material into your own words. Attribute paraphrases to their original sources. Paraphrases are usually shorter than, but may be the same length as, the original passage. Paraphrases take a more focused segment of the source and condense it slightly. --Quoting, paraphrasing, and summarizing. (2004). Purdue University Online Writing Lab. Retrieved September 28, 2007, from --p APA 6e

14 Quoting Quotations must be identical to the original. Quotations use a narrow segment of the source. They must match the source document word for word and must be attributed to the original author. Use quotes when the actual words are so integral to the discussion that they cannot be replaced. Use quotes when the author s words are so precisely and accurately stated that they cannot be paraphrased. --Quoting, paraphrasing, and summarizing. (2004). Purdue University Online Writing Lab. Retrieved September 28, 2007, from --p APA 6e

15 Block Quotes - 5 or more lines - Single spaced - Indented - No quotation marks - Footnote at end

16 Using Footnotes in Text

17 Using Footnotes in Text When using Chicago footnotes, whenever a source is used in a paper, a footnote is inserted to credit the source. Footnotes are shown in text as superscript numbers that relate to a numbered source at the bottom of the page. The source at the bottom of the page includes much, if not all, of the original bibliographic source information A simple rule: Who, What, Where, When, Which (pages) Authors First and Last Names, Title Title of Periodical, Owner, or Publisher (Date of Publication): XX-XX (( page range))

18 Using Footnotes in Text To enter a footnote (in Microsoft Word), place the cursor at the end of the sentence (after the period) that includes information or ideas from a source. Click References and click Insert Foot Note This inserts the superscript number and allows you to insert the corresponding source material at the bottom of the page with the matched number The order the subscript and citations follow is the order they appear in the text

19 Inserting Footnotes
