As an English reading and writing tutor for first and second year college students- many of whom are in remedial classes- I find this video very helpful in explaining how to paraphrase rather than simply what paraphrasing is. I find that many students know what paraphrasing is, but they struggle to rephrase sentences and paragraphs into their own words. I might add that using strategies such as rearranging the order of a sentence, in addition to using synonyms is a great tactic.
I am so glad I have come across this. I personally feel this is the only vlog that has simplified everything so well. Thank you so much for this .. I really don't understand why people have disliked this...... no one can break down Paraphrasing this well.
Honestly, this is the kind of teaching techniques that students from various learning institutions need, it is very creative, educational, informative, interesting and entertaining as well. Guy Stieglitz, you have done an excellent job for making this wonderful instructional video and I give you 100% respect for that. I think you should also do another video that will teach students the differences between paraphrasing and plagiarism and give many examples that will explained clearly theirs differences. Thanks and keep up the good work.
I really thank you for your kind feedback. I am going to make that video real soon because the difference between paraphrasing and citing is important and I think some younger students don't really see the difference.
I haven't heard about such an interesting option in writing programs. Thanks a lot for this knowledge, it is going to be extremely helpful in my future writing.
Thank you for sharing this! I will be able to use your video with my students because you are so thorough and well-paced while explaining. I am a middle school English teacher and never heard of the online paraphrasing tool. Very helpful for my young learners to have a way to check their paraphrasing work.
The pedagogy is so useful that it touched me deeply, because it taught me everything in the act of paraphrasing in terms of structure, synonymous, sentence, rewording. Thanks a lot 👍
Here is my paraphrase regarding New York City (sentence level changes): Nestled very close to the Atlantic Ocean, the city that never sleeps, New York, has a very wide variety of spectacular sights and attractions that allures not only those who live in the state, but also those from other states and also international visitors.
Mr. Guy, that's the best lecture I have ever seen! I can see that you made a great efforts in this lecture, all the materials are well prepared. I viewed some videos , the lecturer just talk some fancy words to the viewers, which is not up to the academic level at all. thanks !!
Hi, I love your video and learned a lot from this video. I have a question, How could you get synonyms of the word after you click it? Can you tell me the way of setting?
Mark the word that you want a synonym for and then right-click. You should see a list of words if there are any available. Click on the word you think is best. Let me know if that works for you.
My foundation studies program wants us to learn this but I don't understand what the teacher is saying after watching this video I get the idea of on how to paraphrase thx so much Mr Guy
Should we name the site from where we were paraphrasing just like the source giving ? And in case of assignment writing, should I add that citation in the reference portion?
yes this will really help me!!...I do have a question though. I am writing a science essay soon. If say a fundamental part of the essay would be something like "garlic contains allin which gets metabolized into allicin via [add a long scientific explanation]" The thing is if I do have that long explanation, chances are if i paraphrase the works of 10 people I would pretty much be copying the works of another 10, but because it is such a fundamental explanation I am not so sure how to go about this...the school i go to uses turnmein to detect plagiarism and I am not sure of how to work around it here thank you for your help!!!
remember, if you think the information can't or should not be paraphrased, simply cite it according the the method you institution uses. For example, I use APA. So the ideas is to quote and cite. Often we paraphrase and cite, but sometimes we quote and cite. Does this help?
Hello. Thanks for the video! Here is a question. What if an author has shown when an idea appeared and how it was used throughout history in e.g. three pages and I want to paraphrase only parts that I need (e.g. not including all the periods the author mentions or all the points about these periods). And I want that the paraphrase be e.g. only one paragraph long.
That is a lot of paraphrasing. Usually we insert specific ideas from authors into our text. It is not typical to paraphrase that much information. I would run it by your teacher.
+Muhammad Saddique Summary writing is simply capturing the main points of a text. The focus here is the MAIN points. The summary is usually shorter than the text that is being summarized because not all details make the summary. The summary should be in your own words. Here is something from OWL Perdue at owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/563/01/ Paraphrasing involves putting a passage from source material into your own words. A paraphrase must also be attributed to the original source. Paraphrased material is usually shorter than the original passage, taking a somewhat broader segment of the source and condensing it slightly. Summarizing involves putting the main idea(s) into your own words, including only the main point(s). Once again, it is necessary to attribute summarized ideas to the original source. Summaries are significantly shorter than the original and take a broad overview of the source material.

Yes I agree. Thanks.
I am really suprised that over 300 views and don't like this video. Myself I'll give big like.
thanks Mr Guy.
I think some people dislike, because they really like to dislike because clicking is so easy. For me a BIG LIKE, too.

Amazing teacher!!! Thanks

Nestled very close to the Atlantic Ocean, the city that never sleeps, New York, has a very wide variety of spectacular sights and attractions that allures not only those who live in the state, but also those from other states and also international visitors.
Nice effort!
That's much better than the original, which is repetitive, saying that NY is popular and people like to visit, which mean the same thing.
it wouldnt be so easy while doing it on scientific articles
@@pr7009 It is more of a challenge, but still very possible.
Superliked! Please post more examples
