Exercise 3

Given below is a paragraph from a published source on the left, and a piece of student writing on

the right. Has this student documented appropriately? What do you think?

Published Source

Anyone who is skilled at making pancakes

will have the griddle very hot so that the

batter solidifies quickly after being poured.

Not having a thermostat on the griddle, one

tests the griddle's temperature by sprinkling

water on it. If the griddle is hot but not hot

enough, the water drops spread out, wet the

surface and evaporate within about two

seconds. If the griddle is ready for the batter,

the sprinkled drops dance, vibrate and skim

over the surface for from 30 to 100 seconds.

How can drops last longer on a hotter

griddle?

Student Writing Sample

If you have ever made pancakes, you might have

noticed that if the griddle is hot but not quite

ready for the batter, a drop of water sprinkled on

the griddle will thin out and disappear in about

two seconds. When the surface becomes hot

enough, however, the droplets will bounce,

wriggle and skip above the griddle for anywhere

from half a minute to over a minute and a half.

How can this be?

Bibliography

Walker, Jearl. (1977). Drops of water dance. The

American Scientist. 237, pp-131.

Is this student writing sample acceptable?

a) Yes! The writer of the passage has not used any of the original author's exact words.

b) Yes! The writer of the passage has credited the original source in the bibliography.

c) Both A and B.

d) No! The writer of the passage has not documented this source properly.
