2 Main Issues Overuse and improper use of quotes Lack of citations (Lack of academic voice - “I”)

So What? Plagiarism is a serious issue You’re going to be teachers!

What is Research (and why cite?)

You - the researcher - are drawing on a field, a base of knowledge Drawing on the contributions of others to build on and create something new  must acknowledge those you drew on (citation)  cannot use quotes as main content

Citations ntegrity/case1.htmlhttp:// ntegrity/case1.html

Citations When to cite? –Direct quotes: Lohnes (2008) argued, “when writing a research paper, you must acknowledge those you drew on” (p. 3). * Direct quotes must have BOTH “” and a citation. Otherwise, it looks like you’re using someone’s words (not just ideas) as your own.

Citations When to cite? –Paraphrasing: Lohnes (2008) argued that it is important to cite the research and authors that you use in your own paper.

Quotes New literacies are important today. “The new literacies of the Internet and ICT include the skills, strategies, and dispositions necessary to successfully use and adapt to the rapidly changing info and communication technologies and contexts that continuously emerge in our world and influence all areas of our personal and professional lives” (Leu et al., 2004, p. 1570). As you can see, this is why new literacies are important.

Quotes Use sparingly! –to support an argument –to illustrate a point –NOT to make your argument for you How am I able to assess what you’ve learned, if none of it is in your own words?
