PARAPHRASING
When you paraphrase, or put information learned from a source into your own words, you must change not only the words of the original source, but also the sentence structure, and you must STILL cite the source within your text.
Use the same in-text formats as we just looked at.
Paraphrasing #1
Putting someone else’s ideas in your words (still must cite)
ORIGINAL: “The two men signed a pact a year ago to end a civil war that has killed hundreds of thousands of people, displaced a third of the population and wrecked the economy” (“AfricaNews”).*
*Since this is an internet source with NO author, we look to our bibliographic citation to see what we put in the parenthesis.
