Understanding the difference between paraphrasing and plagiarizing is critical when you're working with sources for your academic projects. This workshop, hosted by the Miller Writing Center, clarifies what is and isn't appropriate when it comes to using sources, helping you think critically about what it means to use the work of others, so you can make better choices and avoid unintended plagiarism. By the end of the session, you will have an understanding of the fundamental principles of paraphrasing, quoting, and attribution; develop specific strategies for effective paraphrasing; and have the opportunity to apply these strategies to your own work — so bring a project to work on!
