How do you quote class notes in a paper?

Question

Would using facts and tidbits the professor told us in class be plagerism if I didn't cite them? If I don't cite them, then that means i'm claiming them as my own work, but I have no idea how to cite my professor. Any ideas?

This is for a college 300 level history course

Answer 1

I'd speak to the prof. first and ask him/her if this is a valid resource. He or she may point you to the actual resource where the information was found in the first place. Always, ALWAYS cite! Good luck.

Answer 2

I would call the Professor and ask him or her if it is okay to use your notes in your paper, and if he or she says okay they will not need you to cite them; however, for future reference cite your notes by stating it this way: Example: Professor Lee once stated that college is very important for ones personal growth. Or, in your lecture you stated that one should never use drugs because it will destroy your life, but i feel the real reason one should not use is to stay in good health.
Does this help?

Answer 3

Cite Your professor's words in quotation marks, list the works in Your foot notes and the attached Bibliography. That should cover Your back.

Answer 4

You can either copy directly from your notes or paraphrase it.

As for reference information, in doing your endnotes, place the date by the note number so your professor will know what day the lecture was given on.

Example:

1. Class lecture notes, January 31, 2007.


Hope that helps.

Answer 6

Well scribble the main facts not the entire sentence or else you will just lose out.

Answer 7

if you are saying exactly what he is saying or something eerily similar but if you are just summarizing it than it isn't plagiarism. however to be safe name ALL SOURCES.
