Assignment 2
Reflecting on Your Writing: Paraphrasing and Academic Integrity
As a scholar, knowing how to paraphrase is a critical skill when accurately reflecting a colleague’s ideas. Effective paraphrasing is used to articulate a source’s essential ideas but without directly copying the author’s words or phrases. This week’s Learning Resources will help you develop effective paraphrasing skills and avoid unintentional plagiarism.
For this Discussion, you will reflect on your own writing in relation to paraphrasing and academic integrity. Based on what you have learned from the week’s Learning Resources, you will share your thoughts and experiences on paraphrasing and academic integrity with your colleagues.
To prepare for this Discussion
· Read and Listen to the Learning Resources on paraphrasing and academic integrity.
· Reflect on your paraphrasing process in relation to academic integrity. You may even choose to consider your approach to this specific assignment in relation to summary and academic integrity.
