PEERS POST:
My name is Robin, I am 28. I have been with my husband for almost 10 years. We have 4 amazing children together. Elaina (8), Brantley (7), Lydia (4), Maverick (4 months). I have 3 cats and 1 dog. I love to hike, swim, fish, and camp. My indoor hobbies include diamond dots, 3D puzzles and reading. I am currently a stay-at-home mom because my son was born prematurely, and I had an emergency c-section. With Maverick being born 6 weeks early and having some minor issues, no one is willing to babysit. Previously I was an assistant preschool teacher at a head start program. I am pursuing my bachelor’s degree in psychology and will graduate this August. I have not fully decided on what I want to do once I get my degree, but it is in between a preschool teacher, school counselor, or if I go for my master’s and my doctorate to be a psychiatrist.
Paraphrasing is when you read an article but use your own words to explain what you read. Three ways to prevent plagiarism is to cite, quote, and use Turnitin. Using Turnitin is easy. You click on the assignment to go to the waypoint. Once you are on the waypoint, you chose your assignment, then upload a document, on submission type you chose originality check only this will upload your assignment and see if anything is similar to previous papers or websites. Once you get the report back you can edit and fix if there is anything that is similar or that you forgot citing.
