Week 3 Discussion No Plagiarism!

$7.00

For this discussion, we will look at the proper use of quoting and paraphrasing. No more than 15-20% of your final paper ought to include source support, but how you use that source support is very important.  For this discussion, please review the information on pages 84-92. Next, complete this week’s discussion, as follows.

  •  For your main post, using Thomas Lord’s essay “What? I Failed? But I Paid for Those Credits! Problems of Students Evaluating Faculty” (pages 93-97), complete this document by clicking here. When ready (and preferably by Wednesday but certainly no later than Friday), submit it as an attachment. Please note that for this main post, you should avoid any use of signal phrases (attribution tags–see page 84)). While these can be useful in writing your research, the overuse of this practice takes away from your ability to have a voice in the paper.
  • For the two peer posts, due before Sunday but posted on two different days from the main post and each other, explore your peers’ work and help them determine whether they have accurately quoted and paraphrased material from Lord’s writing. Also determine whether the citations and reference entries are correct.
