ANU Library Academic Skills: Using Sources in Academic Writing

Find out how to effectively integrate supporting information into your writing through paraphrasing and summarising

Need to present evidence for your arguments? Not sure how to position and distinguish your ideas from others?

Summarising, paraphrasing and synthesising are legitimate ways of incorporating evidence into your assignments in developing and supporting your own claims. In this workshop, we discuss strategies for writing effective summaries, paraphrases and syntheses, as well as linguistic devices for signalling your own voice.
