How close is too close? Romance novel #1, Sloppy Firsts, by Megan McCafferty"Though I used to see him sometimes at Hope's house, Marcus and I had never, ever acknowledged each other's existence before. So I froze, not knowing whether I should (a) laugh, (b) say something, or (c) ignore him and keep on walking. I chose a brilliant combo of (a) and (b)…"I turned around and saw that Marcus was smiling at me."Romance novel # 2, How Opal Mehta…, by Kaavya Viswanathan"Though I had been to school with him for the last three years, Sean Whalen and I had never acknowledged each other's existence before. I froze, unsure of (a) what he was talking about, or (b) what I was supposed to do about it. I stared at him…."I looked up and saw that Sean was grinning."Smith, D. (2006, April 25).

Paraphrasing Examples

Student achievement is partially obtained by the student focusing on desirable goals and outcomes (Miller, 2009).

Miller (2009) establishes that goals and outcomes are extremely important elements in student achievement.

In a 2009 article, Miller established that goals and outcomes are an important determinant of student achievement.

Quotation Example

“Within the college classroom, teachers and students make thousands of decisions that affect learning” (Miller, 2009, p. 4).

REMEMBER . . .If your quote is longer than 40 words, indent 5 additional spaces in both the left and right margins.

AND

If no date is found, use n.d. in its place.

You try…

If you paraphrase from the book Cure tooth decay, by Ramiel Nagel, from 2009, what goes at the end of your sentence?

If you quote from a website with no author, from 2010, what goes at the end of the sentence?

If you summarize from a journal article with 4 authors, and no date, what goes at the end of the sentence?

So what if you need some bling?!
