===================================================================

Your assignment this term will he to write two major research papers. One of the most important things about writing a research paper is giving proper credit for your sources of inormation. Failure to this is called plagiarism⁵, which is a form of intellectu- al dishonesty. Plagiarism is a kind of stealing, or at least, an unauthorized borrowing of someone else's ideas. Sometimes, inexperienced students will plagiarize⁶ unintentionally, and then be surprised when the teacher won't accept their papers, or gives them a failing grade. The best way to avoid unintentional plagiarizing⁷ is to be very careful in gathering your information as you take notes on hooks and magazine articles about the topic you've selected. Firstly, try to assimilate the information thoroughly⁸. Second{y, write it down in your own words, this is called paraphrasing⁹. If you do a good job of paraphrasing, you'll capture the main idea from your source without actually using any phrases form it, Most of your notes should probably be paraphrases¹⁰. However, oeeasionally you may find something you wish to quote directly in your research paper. In this case, be sure that you copy the quotation³ precisely¹¹ in your note, and enclose it in quotation marks. That way when you are finalizing¹² your research paper, you'll be able to remember which of your notes are direct quotes, and which are your own summaries of the mate- rial. You can then incorporate them appropriately and give the original author proper credit.
