A student who paraphrases an author’s ideas, but does not quote the author’s exact words, must still cite the author in both the body of the paper and in the reference section at the end of the paper. True or False

The answer is false. You only need to site the author at the end of the paper if you are just paraphrasing.

You should give credit to them, yes. You can state the source from which it came from, or the author himself. I’m going to say this is true
