SUMMARY
Plagiarism can be defined as using ideas, data, or any relevant information
of another without giving proper credit or acknowledgement (Standler,
2012).

PARAPHRASE
According to Standler (2012), plagiarism can occur in small cases, which
happens when small parts of a passage are used without enclosing them
in quotation marks and citing the author. It can also occur in more grave
situations. In these instances, big chunks of the original text are used.
There are changes in the format, but the original author is not attributed to
and the work is claimed as the plagiarist’s own and submitted to comply
with academic requirements or as a part of a material for publication.

DIRECT QUOTATION
Standler (2012) states that plagiarism can be “the quotation of a sentence
or two, without quotation marks and without a citation (e.g. footnote) to the
true author.” (p. 5).

Structured Abstract
Abstract
Background. Previous studies revealed that meaning-focused instruction (MFI) and form-focused
instruction (FFI) are two of the most effective approaches in developing the overall language skills of
second language learner, separately. However, no experimental studies have been conducted to prove
their effectiveness when integrated.
Research Problem. This study aims to fill in this gap by investigating the effects of combining MFI and FFI
in developing the speaking, writing, and grammar skills of selected secondary ESL students in public high
schools in the Philippines.
Methodology. The participants involved in this study are 480 third year high school students. These
students were divided into four groups: Group A (n=120) received both the MFI and FFI, Group B
(n=120) received MMI only, Group C (n=120) received FFI only and Group D (n=120) received the
standard English programme for secondary ESL students.
Results. Findings revealed that students from Groups A, B, and C significantly improved in their speaking,
writing and grammar skills but not Group D. Based on ANOVA, findings further showed that the students
from Group A have outperformed students from Groups B,C, D.
Conclusion. From the findings, it is concluded that combining MFI and FFI is an effective way in
significantly improving the language skills of students. Future directions and implications for teaching are
also discussed.
Unstructured Abstract
The HIV virus is currently destroying all facets of African life. It
therefore is imperative that a new holistic form of health education and
accessible treatment be implemented in African public health policy
which improves dissemination of prevention and treatment programs,
while maintaining the cultural infrastructure. Drawing on government
and NGO reports, as well as other documentary sources, this paper
examines the nature of current efforts and the state of health care
practices in Africa. I review access to modern health care and factors
which inhibit local utilization of these resources, as well as traditional
African beliefs about medicine, disease, and healthcare. This review
indicates that a collaboration of western and traditional medical care
and philosophy can help slow the spread of HIV in Africa. This paper
encourages the acceptance and financial support of traditional health
practitioners in this effort owing to their accessibility and affordability
and their cultural compatibility with the community.
Usability and User-Centered Theory for 21st Century OWLs
By Dana Lynn Driscoll, H. Allen Brizee, Michael Salvo, and Morgan Sousa from The
Handbook of Research on Virtual
Workplaces and the New Nature of Business Practices. Eds. Kirk St. Amant and Pavel
Zemlansky. Hershey, PA: Idea
Group Publishing, 2008.
This article describes results of usability research conducted on the Purdue
Online Writing Lab (OWL). The Purdue OWL is an information-rich
educational website that provides freewriting resources to users
worldwide. Researchers conducted two generations of usabilitytests. In the
first test, participants were asked to navigate the OWL and answer
questions. Results of the first test and user-centered scholarship indicated
that a more user-centered focus would improve usability. The second test
asked participants to answer writing-related questions using both the OWL
website and a user-centered OWL prototype. Participants took significantly
less time to find information using the prototype and reported a more
positive response to the user-centered prototype than the original OWL.
Researchers conclude that a user-centered website is more effective and
can be a model for information-rich online resources. Researchers also
conclude that usability research can be a productivesource of ideas,
underscoring the need for participatory invention.
Guidelines in Writing an Abstract:
• Read your paper and highlight the main
points.
• The abstract must be able to stand alone as
one academic text.
• Do not add any opinion or new information.
• Make the abstract clear and concise.
• Edit your abstract.
Rationale/Introduction/Background
• This section should be the shortest part of the
abstract and should very briefly outline the
following information.
• In most cases, the background can be framed
in just 2–3 sentences or one sentence may
even suffice.
