• A summary is a synthesis of the key ideas of a piece of writing, restated in
your own words – i.e., paraphrased. You may write a summary as a stand-

you must be careful not to copy the exact wording of the original source.

How to summarize?

❖ Identifies the writer of the original text.
❖ Synthesizes the writer’s key ideas.
❖ Presents the information neutrally.
❖ Summaries can vary in length. Follow the directions given by your instructor for how

Example of a Summary
What is paraphrasing?
It expresses the meaning of (the writer or speaker or
something written or spoken) using different words,
especially to achieve greater clarity.
It is presenting ideas and information in your own words and
acknowledging where they come from. By using your own
words, you demonstrate your understanding and your
ability to convey this information
REMEMBER:
• It involves taking a passage - either spoken or
written - and rewording it. Writers often paraphrase
sentences and paragraphs to deliver information in a more
concise way, as you'll see in the examples below. When
paraphrasing, it is important to keep the original meaning
so that the facts remain intact. Basically, you are writing
something in your own words that still expresses the
original idea.
