Here is an in-text citation:
Thein alleges that cheating did in fact occur during the spelling bee (2018).

Explain the scenario to the learners, and have them answer the matrix below:
“According to the weather forecast, there is no typhoon. However, your locality is experiencing
heavy
rainfall, while some parts in your province /region are already flooded. There are reported
incidents of
landslide, evacuation, stranded vehicles and drowning. As a student, what are you going to
do?”
Ask learners to present their responses to the class. Use their responses to synthesize their
understanding
of information literacy.

Information needs
What information do you need?
Sources of information
Where will you get them?
Access to the information
How will you access them?
Evaluate information
How will you check the quality of
information?
Organize information
How will you organize and store them?
Communicate information
How will you create and communicate them?
“There are times when you need to share information that you have acquired from various
sources
written by different authors. It is inevitable to directly quote their words in order to preserve
their
meaning. However, quoting someone else's words without giving credit to the author
essentially gives
an impression that you are claiming ownership of the words they have said. This is called
plagiarism.”
2. Discuss the following:
• Plagiarism: Using other people’s words and ideas without clearly acknowledging the source of
the information
• Common Knowledge: Facts that can be found in numerous places and are likely to be widely
known.
Example: John F. Kennedy was elected President of the United States in 1960. This is generally
known information. You do
not need to document this fact
• Interpretation: You must document facts that are not generally known, or ideas that interpret
facts.
Example: Michael Jordan is the greatest basketball player ever to have played the game. This
idea is not a fact but an interpretation or an opinion. You need to cite the source.
• Quotation: Using someone’s words directly. When you use a direct quote, place the passage
between quotation marks, and
document the source according to a standard documenting style.
Example: According to John Smith in The New York Times, “37% of all children under the age of
10 live below the poverty
line”. You need to cite the source.
• Paraphrase: Using someone’s ideas, but rephrasing them in your own words. Although you
will use your own words to
paraphrase, you must still acknowledge and cite the source of the information.
Plagiarism has legal implications. While ideas themselves are not copyrightable, the artistic
expression of an idea automatically
falls under copyright when it is created. Under fair use, small parts may be copied without
permission from the copyright
holder. However, even under fair use - in which you can use some parts of the material for
academic or non-profit purposes -
you must attribute the original source. What is considered fair use is rather subjective and can
vary from country to country.
• Put quotation marks around everything that comes directly from the text and cite the source.
• Paraphrase, but be sure that you are not simply rearranging or replacing a few words and cite
the source.
• Keep a source journal, a notepad, or note cards- annotated bibliographies can be especially
beneficial
• Use the style manual in properly citing
