Citation & Evidence Practice

This four-step assignment is designed to support your engagement with MLA and APA Style Guides, as
well as your "close reading" of this lesson's Core Reading, Nicholas Blomley's "Pedestrianism." Before
you attempt this in-class assignment, review our discussion of citation in Lesson 3 and any citation
feedback you received on your Objective Summary.
Read Blomley's article
Review relevant content from CGW
Re-orient yourself to the MLA and APA style guides-which are available to you both online (see
Week 3 content) and in CGW (82-120)
You will need to work with these resources to succeed at this assignment. Throughout, you may choose
to use either MLA or APA citation style-just be consistent with your chosen style. My examples are all
formatted in MLA style; if you choose to use APA style, your citations will look different (see APA style
guide).

Please insert your responses in the blank space provided below each prompt/ step.

Question What does Blomley mean by "pedestrianism"?

STEP 1: Full & Direct Quotation

Identify a relevant quotation from within your selected reading. (It is worth noting that there are many
appropriate quotations you could choose between to support either question, rather than one right
answer.) At this point, don't integrate the quotation into your own words. Just cut & paste the
relevant quotation and add an in-text (parenthetical) citation in MLA or APA style.

Like this : "quote quote quote" (Blomley 3).

STEP 2: Paraphrase with a short, Integrated quote

Now, return to the quotation you have selected and identify a key portion of it that feels particularly
important or quotable. You are looking for just a key word or a few key words from within your
selected textual evidence (I.e., quotation) to Include In your own re-worded sentence, or paraphrase-
one that translates the author's claim into your own words, while integrating a short segment of your
chosen quotation. Be sure to include the appropriate in-text citation.

Like this: As Blomley demonstrates, paraphrase paraphrase "quote" paraphrase (3).

STEP 3: Paraphrase
Now, rework your sentence into a strict paraphrase (no direct quotation) with attribution and
appropriate in-text citation. Be sure to rework the content of the quotation you've chosen entirely into
your own words, without copying any single keywords (i.e., very distinctive words used by the author) or
any two or more linked words from the original quotation.

Like this: Blomley claims that paraphrase paraphrase paraphrase paraphrase (3).

STEP 4: Source List

Now, generate a Works Cited entry (if you're working with MLA Style) or a Reference list (if you're
working with APA Style) for Blomely's text. You'll find the relevant guidelines to help with the creation of
this citation in Cap U's Online Style Guide and in the Capilano Guide to Writing Assignments: MLA (88+),
APA (111+).
Hint: This is a chapter from a monography (single-authored book).
