QUOTING
“This difficulty could be attributed to the fact that many students failed to purchase a style manual” (Jones, 1998, p. 199).
If your quote is longer than 40 words, indent 5 additional spaces in both the left and right margins.
AND
If no date is found, use n.d. in its place.
Student achievement is partially obtained by the student focusing on desirable goals and outcomes (Miller, 2009).
Miller (2009) establishes that goals and outcomes are extremely important elements in student achievement.
In a 2009 article, Miller established that goals and outcomes are an important determinant of student achievement.

SUMMARIZING
Condensing a significant amount of someone else’s work into a shorter statement or paragraph.
Acceptable AS LONG AS the meaning is not changed and you give the originator proper credit with a citation.
BY THE WAY…
For this class, you won’t need to use the in-text citations because we aren’t writing
a full paper!
HOWEVER…
…now you know how to cite them for your other classes!
Wait… why should we
care again?
