PARAPHRASE vs.
SUMMARY
Many are confused on how to do a paraphrase and
summary in their paper, simply because they do not know
the distinction between them.
In this presentation, our aim is for you to identify the
difference from paraphrasing and summarizing.
DEFINITION
To get a better understanding of their differences, let us
first define the meaning of a summary vs. paraphrase.
Paraphrasing is a method by saying important data from an
outside source written in your own words, that give
sustenance for your ideas.
While summarizing is a method in which you shrink down
the piece of writing, and focus on the author’s key points.
PARAPHRASING
1. When you paraphrase you change the words of the author
yet making sure that the idea of the sentence is still intact.
See paraphrase example online to help with this task.
2. Start to read the material and be sure you understand what
was in it.
3. Highlight main points or ideas and reword them by writing it
without looking at the real text. In this manner you are
putting them in your own words and avoid unintended
plagiarism.
PARAPHRASING
4. Be sure to also change the sentence structure. Even if
you reword the passage, if the sentence structure is the
same, you still have done plagiarism.
5. It doesn't necessarily mean that you have to make your
text shorter. Sometimes you make longer statements
than the original, as long as the main idea is unchanged.
These are the difference of paraphrase vs. summary.
SUMMARIZING
1. When you summarize you write down briefly what was
written in the material source. Incorporate only the
main points and supporting facts. Review some
examples of summarizing and paraphrasing so you can
easily differentiate their concepts.
2. Read your material and comprehend it.
3. Like paraphrasing, you would want to use also your own
words or language to avoid plagiarism.
SUMMARIZING
4. Before you start to summarize, you should take only
what is essential to your reader and include them in your
paper. Omit carefully unnecessary details that may lead
confusion to your reader. Look for summarizing and
paraphrasing example to give you insight on how to
write them correctly.
5. Do not forget to cite your sources. This will depend on
what style of writing you are using.
How are you going to do a paraphrasing and summarizing
of the example given below?
Original text:
“The fox stalked its prey in the moonlight, it’s large ears
and bright eyes on high alert for the rabbit’s next move.”
Paraphrase:
“Using its remarkable hunting features, the fox was
watching for the hare, but it stayed still in the night.”
Summary:
“Foxes hunts for the rabbits during nighttime, using its
eyes and ears.”
Remember there are many ways to execute
paraphrasing and summarizing.
