So how do I paraphrase/summarize

?Paraphrase

After reading a particular segment that you found significant, put the article aside and restate what the author’s point was in that section. What did he/she argue, decide, or prove?

Check how your version compares to the original and record the page number.

“Use quotation marks to identify any unique term or phraseology you have borrowed exactly from the source” (OWL).

Summarize

After reading the entire article, set your notes and the article aside. Ask yourself what the main idea(s) were

Try to write that main idea in your own words without referring back to the article or your notes.

Partner paraphrase practice

The twenties were the years when drinking was against the law, and the law was a bad joke because everyone knew of a local bar where liquor could be had. They were the years when organized crime ruled the cities, and the police seemed powerless to do anything against it. Classical music was forgotten while jazz spread throughout the land, and men like Bix Beiderbecke, Louis Armstrong, and Count Basie became the heroes of the young. The flapper was born in the twenties, and with her bobbed hair and short skirts, she symbolized, perhaps more than anyone or anything else, America's break with the past. From Kathleen Yancey, English 102 Supplemental Guide (1989): 25.

Paraphrase “answer”

During the twenties lawlessness and social nonconformity prevailed. In cities organized crime flourished without police interference, and in spite of nationwide prohibition of liquor sales, anyone who wished to buy a drink knew where to get one. Musicians like Louis Armstrong become favorites, particularly among young people, as many turned away from highly respectable classical music to jazz. One of the best examples of the anti-traditional trend was the proliferation of young "flappers," women who rebelled against custom by cutting off their hair and shortening their skirts (Yancey 25).

Practice: compose your first annotation

An annotation should include A summary of the article’s argument/main points Paraphrases of significant sections of the article An evaluation of the article (Was the argument

convincing? Why/why not? Were there holes? Did it answer all your questions? What else were you wondering at the end?)

*You will bring this annotation and any others you complete to conference for feedback
