Original Work-Paraphrasing


I often get students asking me, how can I be sure to avoid plagiarism? To avoid problems, be sure to explain information in your own words as if writing to a non-nurse friend or family member. However, you will still need to cite the information.  Big vocabulary is not a hallmark of good writing, but rather clear and concise sentences are. When paraphrasing, change the verbs and adjectives, but leave the nouns.  Using consistent nouns throughout a paper avoids potential confusion for the reader. 

 Who would have thought English class would be so important?!
