Our latest APA Style blog post shares practical strategies and an APA Style activity to teach paraphrasing, including tips for avoiding plagiarism. This blog post and the handout are designed for use by instructors, writing center staff, and anyone guiding students in scholarly writing. (3/4)

Paraphrasing isn’t about swapping enough words to make a new version of a sentence (known as “patchwriting”). Instead, it’s about understanding ideas and expressing them, with accuracy, in your own voice. (1/4) #APAStyle #APA7 #TeachingTips #AcademicWriting #HigherEd #Paraphrasing #TeachingAPAStyle

An #APAStyle reference generally has four elements. Each answers a question. ▪️ author: Who is responsible for this work? ▪️ date: When was this work published? ▪️ title: What is this work called? ▪️ source: Where can I retrieve this work? 🔗 learn more: apastyle.apa.org/style-gramma...
