PARAPHRASING & DIRECT QUOTING


Objectives

• Identify features of paraphrasing and direct quoting;


• Differentiate summarizing, paraphrasing and direct
quoting;
• Use appropriate reporting verbs;
• Paraphrase various texts;
• Write direct quotations;
• Apply various forms of in-text citations in
paraphrases and direct quotes; and
• Evaluate paraphrases and direct quotations.
Warm up Activity

• As groups with five members each, pick one


English song and paraphrase its lyrics.
• Then submit a copy of the original lyrics and
the paraphrased version.
• For better appreciation of the activity, each
group shall sing to class the original song
which lyrics they paraphrased.
Summarizing, Paraphrasing and Direct Quoting compared

• While they are all skills that help effectively


encapsulate ideas or concepts in a text, these three
have the following similarities and differences:
• Summarizing: 1) does not match the source word
for word;
2) Involves putting the main idea in
one’s own words;
3) Much shorter than the original
text;
Similarities and Differences

• Must be attributed to the original source.


• Paraphrasing: 1) does not match the source word
for word;
2) putting a passage in one’s own
words;
3) changes the words or phrases in
a passage but retains and
communicates its original meaning;
4) attributed to the original source.
Similarities and Differences

• Direct Quoting: 1) matches the source word


for word;
2) usually a short part of the
text;
3) cited parts are enclosed in
quotation marks;
4) must be attributed to the
original source
When to Use Paraphrasing, Summarizing & Direct Quoting

• We paraphrase a short text with one or two


sentences, or a paragraph with a maximum of
five sentences;
• We paraphrase when we avoid or minimize
direct quotation; or
- to rewrite the author’s words by not changing
the message, or
- to use you own words to state the author’s ideas
• We summarize a text that has long sections;
• We also summarize when we want to:
- avoid or minimize direct quotation; or
- use the main idea of the text and write it in
your own words.
• We quote a text that conveys powerful
message, or will show less impact if it is
paraphrased or summarized (e.g., Constitution)
• We quote directly when we want to:
- begin our discussion with the author’s stand;
or
- highlight the author’s expertise in your claim,
argument or discussion.
Guidelines in Paraphrasing

1. Read the text and understand its meaning. Do not


stop until you understand the message.
2. Use pen to highlight or underline the key words or
main idea of the text.
3. Recall the key words or main idea of the text that you
highlighted when you read it.
4. Write in your own words what you understood about
the ideas in the text.
5. Get the original text and compare it with your
paraphrase.
Guidelines in Paraphrasing

6. Check the meaning to be sure that the paraphrase


should have the same meaning as the original text.
7. Refrain from adding comments about the text.
8. Compare your output to the original text to ensure
accuracy and remove redundant words or ideas.
9. Record details of the original source (author,
publication date, etc. Or URL if on-line.
10. Format your paraphrase properly.
Guidelines in Direct Quoting

• Warning : Direct quoting should not be used


to replace paraphrasing or summarizing.
1. Copy exactly the part of the text that you
want to use.
2. Use quotation marks to show the beginning
and ending of the quote.
3. Record the details of the original source;
4. Format your quotation properly.
Reinforcement Activity

• Conduct a research about any of the two controversial


topics below:
1. The Tax Reform for Acceleration and Inclusion (TRAIN)
Law ;
2. Anti-Hospital Bill Deposit Law (R.A. 10932).
• Write an information article about your chosen topic in
500 to 700 words.
• Make sure to add direct quotations and paraphrased
material to expound on your topic.
• Cite your sources.
Class Activity

• In a sheet of paper, highlight the key words or


phrases in the original texts and write your
paraphrases.
• “Corruption occurs in both public and private
organizations. It can be understood as a decision
“sold” to benefit the briber, while the bribe
payment compensates for the decision maker’s risks
and moral cost of betraying the institution”
(Sorelde, 2014, p.1)
• Use the Date Heading Format in your paraphrase.
• “Microfinance is the provision of financial intermediation
through the distribution of small loans, acceptance of
small savings and provision of other financial products
and services to the poor. Central to the concept of
microfinance is the idea that poverty can be effectively
and permanently reduced or eliminated within a
reasonable period of time by providing the poor with
access to such financial services”(Getubig, Gibbons &
Remenyi, 2007, p. 7)

• Use the Author Heading Format in your paraphrase.


Notes

• In Idea Heading Format, the paraphrased idea


comes BEFORE the citation.
• In Author Heading Format, the paraphrased
idea comes AFTER the citation.
• In Date Heading Format, the paraphrased idea
comes AFTER THE DATE when the material
was published.
