FAQs

Effective and proper paraphrasing should demonstrate your genuine understanding and academic integrity.

You are recommended to:

1. Paraphrase primarily in your own words to ensure your understanding
2. Use AI selectively for suggestions on wording, precision, or formality to enhance readability
3. Review the AI output against your original meaning, correct distortions and refine for a smooth logical flow

While at the same time, remember to:

• Retain your self-paraphrased version before incorporating AI
• Cite the original sources properly
• Disclose AI use in the format required by your subject or the journal

Please avoid:

• Input large blocks of text into AI and accept the output directly as your paraphrase
• Attempt to "trick" AI detection tools to hide AI involvement
