Assignment 1: Incorporating Sources

To complete this discussion assignment, choose one of the sources you will be utilizing in your final paper. Then, using one passage from that source, provide an example of a quotation, an example of a paraphrase, and an example of a summary from that passage.

Be sure that the passage you have chosen is at least 75 words. It’s important to use the same passage for your quote, paraphrase, and summary so we can compare how each source use method works with the same information. Provide an APA formatted in-text citation for each of your source use examples, and a reference list citation for the source you used in your examples.

Then, in a separate paragraph of 150 to 200 words, discuss how you perceive the differences between quotations, paraphrases, and summaries. When would it be appropriate to use each of those methods? How will you incorporate quotations, paraphrases, and summaries in your own paper?
