• Keep careful research notes and keep track of citations and where your information comes from.
  
  
• Copy and paste judiciously
  
  
• Remember that most of the words you are using should be yours. Quotes from sources should be used to bolster your ideas.
  
  
• If you paraphrase or quote, you need to cite.  Other people's ideas need to be credited as well as their quoted words.
