6. Quoting and Paraphrasing
Original as found in the book:
The massive collection of data by the AML technologies that populate the intelligent
environment enables extensive profiling, which in turn is necessary to deliver the
benefits delivered by AML.
Quoted in your essay:
According to Hart, Smith and Wilson âthe massive collection of data by the AML
technologies that populate the intelligent environment enables extensive profiling,
which in turn is necessary to deliver the benefits delivered by AMLâ (p437, 2008).
Paraphrased in your essay:
In order for AML technologies to perform correctly they must collect profiles. As a
result, it is necessary for them to collect a large amount of data (Hart, Smith and
Wilson, 2008).

Basics: quick recap on difference between refs and citations, quoting and paraphrasing .
Creating references using Library Search and other resources.
Getting them right â ensuring that your references comply with Harvard Cite them right
Identifying resources â getting the information that you need from a source in order to create a reference
Referencing from scratch
Referencing is the process of acknowledging other peopleâs work when you have used it in your assignment or research.
Referencing provides the link between what you write and the evidence on which it is based i.e. verifies what you claim etc
You identify the sources that you have used by citing them in the text of your assignment (called citations or in-text citations) and referencing them at the end of your assignment (called the reference list or end-text citations).
The reference list only includes the sources cited in your text.
It is not the same thing as a bibliography, which uses the same referencing style, but also includes all material, for example background readings, used in the preparation of your work.
Demonstrate that you have read widely on the subject and considered and evaluated the writings of others
Show your tutor the evidence of your research and thereby appreciate your contribution to the topic
Establish the credibility and authority of your ideas and arguments
Enable the reader to locate the original material you used
Give credit to the original author/creator
Enable the reader to form their own views on the value of your sources and how you have interpreted them
Distinguish between your own ideas and opinions and those of others
Highlight and back-up relevant points by quoting, paraphrasing or summarising from the original text
Achieve a better mark or grade
Avoid plagiarism.
Quoting:
Use when the original wording conveys the idea perfectly
Use authorâs exact words
Put âquotation marksâ around the authorâs words
Refer to the author in text and include book/journal in reference list
Paraphrasing:
Present the authorâs ideas in your own words
Still need to refer to the authorâŠ.the words are yours, but the idea is theirs
An easy way to create Harvard refs is using Library search.
Signing-in enables you to access full text material, check your library record, request items, create lists, save searches and create alerts and export references to RefWorks.
Everyone sign-in.
Everyone do a search and try creating some references.
Hand out worksheet.
You will see a reference created by Library Search and you need to use Cite Them Right to check what the reference should look like and correct it.
Answers. Bits that needed changing are highlighted in colour.

One of the biggest problems with referencing is knowing what youâve got, so the next task is for you to identify what sources are and create a reference for them from scratch using Cite Them Right. None of these items are on Library Search, so you canât use that to generate references.
Go to the web address and look at the 5 items.
