    WEEK 3 - Academic Writing/Text Structure and its Approaches

    WEEK 3
    Lesson 5. PARAPHRASE
    Learning Objectives:
    A. Define Paraphrase
    B. Identify the tips of Paraphrase
    C. Paraphrase a certain text

    What Is Paraphrasing?
    When you paraphrase, you use your own words to express something that was written or said
    by another person. Putting it into your own words can clarify the message, make it
    more relevant to your audience , or give it greater impact. You might use paraphrased
    material to support your own argument or viewpoint. Or, if you're putting together
    a report , presentation  or speech , you can use paraphrasing to maintain a consistent style,
    and to avoid lengthy quotations from the original text or conversation.
    Paraphrased material should keep its original meaning and (approximate) length, but you can
    use it to pick out a single point from a longer discussion.
    How to Paraphrase Text
    To paraphrase text, follow these four steps:

    Read and Make Notes


    Carefully read the text that you want to paraphrase. Highlight, underline or note down important
    terms and phrases that you need to remember.

    Find Different Terms


    Find equivalent words or phrases (synonyms) to use in place of the ones that you've picked out.
    A dictionary, thesaurus or online search can be useful here, but take care to preserve the
    meaning of the original text, particularly if you're dealing with technical or scientific terms.

    Put the Text into Your Own Words


    Rewrite the original text, line by line. Simplify  the grammar and vocabulary, adjust the order of
    the words and sentences, and replace "passive" expressions with "active" ones.

    Check Your Work


    Check your work by comparing it to the original. Your paraphrase should be clear and simple,
    and written in your own words. It may be shorter, but it should include all of the necessary
    details.
    ACTIVITY

    Instruction: Learners read the given text and paraphrase the given text.

    Original: Despite the undoubted fact that everyone's vision of what constitutes success is
    different, one should spend one's time establishing and finalizing one's personal vision of it.
    Otherwise, how can you possibly understand what your final destination might be, or whether or
    not your decisions are assisting you in moving in the direction of the goals which you've set
    yourself?
    The two kinds of statement – mission and vision – can be invaluable to your approach, aiding
    you, as they do, in focusing on your primary goal, and quickly identifying possibilities that you
    might wish to exploit and explore.
