NARROW TOPIC, PLAGIARISM & PARAPRASING

Ahakzz,, hi u all,,
hihi today i have learn about narrow topic, plagiarism and paraphrasing,,

First i want to say about narrow topic,,
my topic is Abortion Baby and based on that topic i need to narrow the scope of the topic,,
when i have do that,i should be able to determine the focus of my research,,
below is the example of the process of narrowing a topic based on my topic,,

Broad Topic: Abortion a Baby


Narrow Topic: Abortion among married people in Malaysia

Focused Topic: Pro n cons abortion among married people


Second about PLAGIARISM,,what is plagiarism???
In college courses, we are continually engaged with other people’s ideas: we read them in texts, hear them in lecture, discuss them in class, and incorporate them into our own writing. As a result, it is very important that we give credit where it is due. Plagiarism is using others’ ideas and words without clearly acknowledging the source of that information.






Next is PARAPHRASING,,what is a paraphrase???
A paraphrase is when you write published materials in your own words without changing its original meaning. It is usually about the same length as the original, as opposed to a summary which is usually much shorter. It is important that the sentence structure and the vocabulary are not too similar to the original.
