Effective annotation strategies for Quoting & attribution
If you use index cards you will always have the accurate & complete citation info!
1. Cite every time you paraphrase, summarize, quote to state and support a claim you make
2. Two or more continuous words need quotation marks
3. Cite the same way for paraphrase, quote, summarize
4. Cite whenever youre not sure if you should cite!
5. When using a statement the author is quoting, you don’t need to use the original author’s name.. you do need double quotation marks: “ ‘ blah blah blah’” [see line 19-30 in teen brain for examples]
6. However, if the author is quoting someone he/she disagrees with, you might want to name the original author:
7. Bb: p. 5, paragr 1: “ Baseball, writes Murray…. P.8 last parag is the original statement
8. Always sandwich quotes in between your sentences that explain how you want the reader to interpret it and that explain the connection to the point you are making
