Teaching Reading
Hey, Ronda! Good morning and happy Saturday. I wanted to touch base with you regarding your Week 3 Assignment. Your TurnItIn Score is 40% so I took a closer look at your paper. There are some significant chunks of your paper that are matches to other online sources. You can take a look at the TurnItIn report to see for yourself. The highlighted sentences are the ones that are problematic. I am wondering if maybe you did research for your paper and just forgot to paraphrase in your own words and to cite your sources? Remember that you should never use more than 3 exact words in a row from another source and that even if you paraphrase information, you must give credit to the original author by including the author's last name and the year of publication in parentheses after that sentence. Check out this resource from the UAGC Writing Center for help with paraphrasing and citing your sources: https://writingcenter.uagc.edu/plagiarism-guide. I would like you to rework the problematic sections and resubmit
