What is Plagiarism?
Many people think of plagiarism as copying another's work, or borrowing someone else's original ideas. But terms like "copying" and "borrowing" can disguise the seriousness of the offense. From: http://plagiarism.org/plag_article_what_is_plagiarism.h tml

The above link takes you to a source with additional note taking strategies.
Using Quotations
Quotations must be identical to the original, using a narrow segment of the source. They must match the source document word for word and must be attributed to the original author.
A rose by any other name. I wrote that! Give me credit!

Paraphrasing
Paraphrasing involves putting a passage from source material into your own words. A paraphrase must also be attributed to the original source. Paraphrased material is usually shorter than the original passage, taking a somewhat broader segment of the source and condensing it slightly.

If, after you paraphrase, you put the idea entirely into your own words, it is not necessary to cite the source.

The link above takes you to The Writing Center at the University of Wisconsin where you will find examples of good and poor paraphrasing.
Summarizing
Summarizing involves putting the main idea(s) into your own words, including only the main point(s). Once again, it is necessary to attribute summarized ideas to the original source. Summaries are significantly shorter than the original and take a broad overview of the source material.

Again, if take your own text from the summary and put it entirely into your own words, you do not need to cite.
The Consequences
The consequences for plagiarizing are severe. Many colleges consider expulsion for even a first offense. You should review the consequences at FSHA by checking your student handbook. I allow for multiple submissions to turnitin.com so that you can review your authenticity reports. Each new submission overwrites the previous.
REMEMBER: No one wants this to happen. Your teachers and the library staff are all available to help you make the correct choices. Any questions? Ask us!
