    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.

    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.

    • @diveinlearning
      @diveinlearning  8 років тому +1

      +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.

      Ha ha. Hopefully your paraphrasing skill is at a high level by then. Paraphrasing is a skill like driving a car. At first, you have to think of every little thing, but after a while it just happens automatically. But, I guess you could close your eyes if you had to and think about being on a tropical beach -- just for a minute or so. :)
