How do I paraphrase?
Last Updated: May 16, 2025     7

Paraphrasing is an effective way to use research in your assignment. Instead of quoting directly from a source, you can restate the ideas in your own words. Remember to include an in-text citation at the end to acknowledge the source.

For paraphrasing tips, see the Writing Guide's Integrating Research section. You can also make an appointment with Outreach Services or our English Technologist for tips and help integrating research into your writing.
