Hello Today we'll be discussing using quotes and paraphrases often
- 00:05 - 00:06
time in your classes.
- 00:06 - 00:08
Professors will have you used quotes and paraphrases in your
- 00:09 - 00:09
own writing Today.
- 00:10 - 00:11
We want to help you understand how to use quotes
- 00:12 - 00:14
and paraphrases in your own writing, but also how to
- 00:14 - 00:15
differentiate between the two of them.
- 00:16 - 00:17
Let's take a look at what is a quote.
- 00:20 - 00:22
1/4 is directly using a portion of a text word
- 00:23 - 00:23
for word in your own writing.
- 00:24 - 00:26
This could be from journals, books, newspapers, etcetera.
- 00:27 - 00:29
Here is an example of quoting in context.
- 00:30 - 00:33

- 00:33 - 00:36
on our historical imagination runs throughout our efforts to interpret
- 00:37 - 00:39
American development well 537 to 38.
- 00:40 - 00:43
As a result, there is a discrepancy when integrating native
- 00:43 - 00:44
perspectives into colonial history.
- 00:46 - 00:48
From this students example, you can see that that they
- 00:48 - 00:52
started the quote with Merrill argues, stayed the quote and
- 00:52 - 00:55
end with the citation Merrill 537 to 38 with the
- 00:56 - 00:57
author's last name and the page number.
- 00:58 - 01:00
At the very end, the student uses analysis to back
- 01:00 - 01:03
up the authors argument and also integrate the argument in
- 01:03 - 01:03
their own claim.
- 01:08 - 01:09
Next, let's look at what is a pair freeze.
- 01:11 - 01:13
A pair faces putting a portion of a text such
- 01:13 - 01:15
as ideas, statements and fax in your own words.
- 01:16 - 01:18
Paraphrasing can be a long message to your friend or
- 01:18 - 01:21
a long quote in a journal article or a Let's
- 01:21 - 01:22
take a look at pair facing in context.
- 01:25 - 01:28
The extremely advanced structure of the native Old World illustrates
- 01:29 - 01:32
the significance of the evolving trade between the Europeans as
- 01:32 - 01:34
well as the surrounding communities building upon any world.
- 01:35 - 01:38
Salisbury argues that history should not focus solely just on
- 01:38 - 01:40
the integration of natives into the colonies.
- 01:41 - 01:44
The natives had their own advance and longstanding histories that
- 01:44 - 01:46
are unrecognised over the successes of the new world.
- 01:47 - 01:48
Salisbury 453.
- 01:51 - 01:53
From this students example, you can see that they're using
- 01:53 - 01:55
their own words from the original text.
- 01:56 - 01:58
You don't see any quotation marks, and at the very
- 01:58 - 02:02
end of the paragraph, you can see Salisbury 453 the
- 02:02 - 02:04
authors last name and the page number as a citation.

- 02:29 - 02:31
sure not to use too much of the original text
- 02:32 - 02:32
in a paragraph.
- 02:33 - 02:34
Use he she.
- 02:34 - 02:37
They then pronouns stay in your own words and do
- 02:37 - 02:38
not use any quotation marks.
- 02:39 - 02:42
For example, instead of saying when will they return use?
