2. Following the guidelines outlined on the Creating MLA Citations resource, quote directly from the essay AND cite the quote using MLA format. You should have an in-text citation AND a Works Cited entry for the essay you’ve chosen.
3. You will then paraphrase the same sentence you directly quoted. Paraphrasing is taking one sentence (or sometimes several) and putting it into your own words. It does not need quotations makes, but it still needs a citation because the information does not belong to you; it belongs to the original author. Here is an example:
Direct Quote: “Many organic compounds, especially those of a nitrogenous nature, carry sulfur, which appears in simple forms as decay progresses” (Buckman 127).
Paraphrase: Many organic soil mixtures, especially those that contain nitrogen, produce sulfur as they decay (Buckman 127).
4. Lastly, you will write a summary of the essay in your own words. Your summary shouldn’t have any direct quotes or paraphrases; it should cover the content of the article from start to finish. In terms of length, it should be 6-10 sentences long. Think back to the Annotated Bibliography summaries you wrote in Week 1; this summary should be similar to those.
**Please make sure your entire document is in MLA Format including: MLA heading, MLA pagination (page numbering), MLA documentation (Works Cited and in-text citations).**
