15. Guidelines for submission of written work

16. There are 3 people involved in this decision:
the author of the text you are referencing
the writer (you)
the reader (often your teacher).

17. There are 3 common types of in-text citation:
1). Direct Quote – means using the exact same words as the original author
2). Paraphrasing - means using the ideas of an author, but not his or her exact words. However, the meaning should be the same. You can do this, for example, to say that 2 different authors have the same opinion, and give the opinion as a paraphrase. This shows that you can categorise ideas, which is a useful study skill that can improve your marks in assignments.
3). Summarize - is writing a summary of what the author says. It is useful because:
you can miss out unnecessary details, such as examples
you can use less words than the author, and therefore reduce the number of words in your writing
