  1. WRITING RESEARCH ACADEMIC OWNERSHIP REVA SIAS

  2. USING INFORMATION CORRECTLY “PUBLIC DOMAIN” OR “CRIME” A Sias Production

  3. RESEARCH • SELECT A TOPIC. • SEARCH FOR “LIKE” INFORMATION. • NOTE DATA THAT MAY BE USED TO SUPPORT YOUR WORK.

  4. ADDING TO A TEXT • USE A DIRECT QUOTE. • PARAPHRASE THE INFORMATION. • “PLAGIARISM.”

  5. DIRECT QUOTE • Using information directly from a printed or hand-written text, without changing the author’s language, ideas, or theories. • Used sparingly, quotes can add an “authoritative voice” to your work.

  6. PARAPHRASE • Restate the documented information in your “own” words. • It is important to let your reader know that the information “is not” your “original” idea.

  7. “PLAGIARISM” • According to Donald M. Murray, “Plagiarism is a Felony.” • Murray, Donald. Writing to Learn. 7th ed. Ft. Worth: Harcourt, 232.

  8. WHAT IS PLAGIARISM? • Taking information from a text, without giving credit to the owner. • Rearranging “words” and “phrases” of the documented information, without citing. • Replacing “words” or “phrases” of the documented information, without citing.

  9. WHEN TO CITE INFORMATION • To show the author’s original intent and ownership, such as written and spoken words. • To document reference and periodical material, such as newspapers, journals, and electronic information. • When using graphs, charts, and drawings.

  10. SUCCESSFUL RESEARCH EXPERIENCE • DOCUMENT ALL QUOTES. • PARAPHRASE. ESPECIALLY, IF THE INFORMATION IS COMMON KNOWLEDGE. • AVOID “ASSUMING OWNERSHIP.” “PLAGIARISM” IS A CRIME.
