Question 3 • Intro to Software Tech A - TLC

Which scenario describes a student citing an online source in his or her work?

Answer
A
Steven takes notes on all the facts and details a source provides.
B
Marta studies a source carefully to see whether or not it is credible.
C
David sends a letter to the owner of a source to ask if he can quote it.
D
Ling includes the name of a source’s author in her report.

Explanation

Citing a source means giving credit to where information came from, usually by naming its author or other publication details. Ling includes the source’s author in her report, so she is citing it. Taking notes, checking credibility, and asking permission are useful research steps, but they are not citations.
