Your main goal with this article summary assignment is to pull out the main points!
Summaries should be 1 page typed, 12-point font, double-spaced, and should cover the main points of the articles as well as anything you found interesting or troublesome. These summaries MUST be in YOUR OWN words so you will need to paraphrase the information presented. Both parenthetical in-text citations and formal references in CSE format are REQUIRED! Failure to include both will result in a zero on the assignment.
A PDF version of the article can be found on Carmen > Modules. The Article Summary Rubric can be found on Carmen > Modules. We will use the same generalized rubric for all 3 article summary assignments!
These article summaries are submitted and processed through TurnItIn. If you submit your summary in advance of the deadline, you can check your TurnItIn plagiarism score. For any scores over 10% (yellow or red indicators), take a look at the TurnItIn feedback report to see what has been flagged. If large sections of text are flagged (excluding references and title), feel free to work on your paraphrasing, and re-submit your summary before the deadline, if you would like!
