@@peakdavid You are a blessing to this generation. I can't wait to meet you one day. I am a graduate student from New Mexico Tech, and you've been a source of motivation for me. God bless you, sir. You are a father.
The fantastic tutorial video, Dr. David, I have broadened my knowledge about how to use sources and avoid plagiarism. Here are several synthesized points: - Paraphrasing skills are the creation of your distinct work by synthesizing others’ work and crediting their contributions. Notably, the paraphrasing task is not to replace every original word in the sentence with your own words; it is to rearrange original keywords associated with your own words in your ways. - In-text citations + reference citations + Narrative citation (Author + date is a component of the sentence, functions as subject) + Parenthetical citation (Author + date, is put at the end of the sentence, is not part of the sentence) - Quotation is an alternative to the in-text citation and should be used in limited cases, such as: (i) to depict precious definitions of theory. To keep an writer’s memorable or succinct phrasing. (iii) To react to the terminology used. Quotation styles include Narrative and Parenthtical citation, as following examples: + Authorname (Year) points out, “Quotation” + “Quotation”, (Authorname ,Year,page). Finally, to ensure the quotation links to with your paragraphs/ ideas/thoughts, signal phrases should be used. For example, Authorname (Year) states, “Quotation” (page), According to Authorname (Year), “Quotation”(page)
Thank You and Happy New Year 2025 Prof. Taylor for sharing this amazing video. Looking for a video on How to read the research paper and capture the data required to write a research paper. How to do this practically, if you can share video on it will be helpful.
I really enjoy your videos! I am learning more and more with each video. Do you have any suggestions that you can offer me that could help me work on my paraphrasing skills. This part about academic writing makes me very nervous.
One question about the in-text citations: so if narrative citation is used IN PART of the sentence, would it affect using it AT THE BEGINNING of a sentence or it doesn't really matter that much? 2. Quotation: does it need to be rephrase it with your own word or you can use the exact text/ sentence that you sources as longer referenced and the end of the essay and in-text cited? Need to know asap. My first time doing an essay so I would like to understand properly. thanks :)

If I want to add a personal quotation of an artist, into my essay, from a website that has been published by someone else, do i need to reference the website sources only? even if the quotation is not directly from the artist website?
I teach English composition in Haiti. I've had a few students submit essays written entirely by an AI chatbot. Sometimes it's easy to detect, but sometimes not so easy. I see this as a huge problem. What is your opinion?
Unfortunately, this is another form of plagiarism we must deal with. There are AI-plagiarism detectors available. However, they are far from fooproof. My answer is to have students write their projects in stages, beginning with prewriting.
Nice vlog David Sir, I have a question, In some research papers we see 4 or 5 or more citations for same point. How do we find sources for writing such citation to support our point and how we can limit for it in terms of the years 🤗
Thanks for the question. You are seeing that many citations because (1) a citation can only apply to the sentence it is a part of and (2) any time source material is used it must be cited. Academic writers avoid the constant citing of the same source with this trick: th-cam.com/video/NqPwHKg5lUA/w-d-xo.html
Completely astonishing and a refreshing approach while maintaining detailed yet straight forward guidance. THANK YOU!
Your work is very important to explain how to avoid plagiarism, and learn to use the sources! Thank you so much!
Amazing work Dr. Taylor. You're doing public service right here. All the best to you.
You're welcome, Alexandre Cunha! I look forward to helping in any way that I can.

Welcome!
Thank you so much. Can one use paraphrasing tools such as quilbot?
Yes, if your university/teacher allows the use of machine language.
I really enjoy your videos! I am learning more and more with each video. Do you have any suggestions that you can offer me that could help me work on my paraphrasing skills. This part about academic writing makes me very nervous.
Thanks! Try these two: th-cam.com/video/u1t0G7ZnRG8/w-d-xo.html and th-cam.com/video/6nwHEChU44o/w-d-xo.html
Can paraphrasing on Quillbot tantamount to plagiarism? 5:09

Sorry but I would have to see the actual sentences and citations you refer to.
Great Great Content

If I want to add a personal quotation of an artist, into my essay, from a website that has been published by someone else, do i need to reference the website sources only? even if the quotation is not directly from the artist website?
Because you found the quote on a website, you have to cite that website.
Hello sir, can we follow the same steps in numbered in- text citation? Thank you
Yes.
