Overview
Academic writing often requires students to use evidence, and learning how to use evidence effectively is an important skill for college writers to master. Often, the evidence college writers are asked to use comes from their textbooks, course readings, or other written work by professional scholars. It is important to learn how to use these writings responsibly and accurately.
General Considerations
There are three methods of incorporating the writing of others into your paper as evidence:
quotation, which is anything from a word to several sentences taken word-for-word from the original source and enclosed in quotation marks
paraphrase, which is a rephrasing in your own voice and sentence structure of one portion of the original source and is about the same length as the original sentence or sentences you are paraphrasing
summary, which is shorter than the original source and gives the text’s central idea in your own words
Some words to use in signal phrases are argues, asserts, contends, emphasizes, explains, observes, suggests, writes.
In what follows, you will learn some strategies for using these methods of incorporating evidence into your paper.
