Finally, here’s a few important reminders about the Digital Forum Postings:
Don’t forget to cite two different scholars
Make sure you’re using at least two direct quotations (word-for-word quotes from a source).
You can—and most likely will—paraphrase authors’ ideas and research (summarizing their ideas in your own words). Always cite these sources with a footnote. Paraphrased research, however, does not count toward the two direct quotes
