    As an English reading and writing tutor for first and second year college students- many of whom are in remedial classes- I find this video very helpful in explaining how to paraphrase rather than simply what paraphrasing is. I find that many students know what paraphrasing is, but they struggle to rephrase sentences and paragraphs into their own words. I might add that using strategies such as rearranging the order of a sentence, in addition to using synonyms is a great tactic.

    Honestly, this is the kind of teaching techniques that students from various learning institutions need, it is very creative, educational, informative, interesting and entertaining as well. Guy Stieglitz, you have done an excellent job for making this wonderful instructional video and I give you 100% respect for that. I think you should also do another video that will teach students the differences between paraphrasing and plagiarism and give many examples that will explained clearly theirs differences. Thanks and keep up the good work.

      I really thank you for your kind feedback. I am going to make that video real soon because the difference between paraphrasing and citing is important and I think some younger students don't really see the difference.

I am a middle school English teacher and never heard of the online paraphrasing tool. Very helpful for my young learners to have a way to check their paraphrasing work.

      Mark the word that you want a synonym for and then right-click. You should see a list of words if there are any available. Click on the word you think is best. Let me know if that works for you.

    "garlic contains allin which gets metabolized into allicin via [add a long scientific explanation]" The thing is if I do have that long explanation, chances are if i paraphrase the works of 10 people I would pretty much be copying the works of another 10, but because it is such a fundamental explanation I am not so sure how to go about this...the school i go to uses turnmein to detect plagiarism and I am not sure of how to work around it here

      remember, if you think the information can't or should not be paraphrased, simply cite it according the the method you institution uses. For example, I use APA. So the ideas is to quote and cite. Often we paraphrase and cite, but sometimes we quote and cite. Does this help?

    • @diveinlearning
      @diveinlearning  8 лет назад +1

      +Muhammad Saddique
      Summary writing is simply capturing the main points of a text. The focus here is the MAIN points. The summary is usually shorter than the text that is being summarized because not all details make the summary. The summary should be in your own words.
      Here is something from OWL Perdue at owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/563/01/
      Paraphrasing involves putting a passage from source material into your own words. A paraphrase must also be attributed to the original source. Paraphrased material is usually shorter than the original passage, taking a somewhat broader segment of the source and condensing it slightly.
      Summarizing involves putting the main idea(s) into your own words, including only the main point(s). Once again, it is necessary to attribute summarized ideas to the original source. Summaries are significantly shorter than the original and take a broad overview of the source material.
