23. A clause can be a whole
sentence or a part of a
sentence.
There are two kinds of clauses:
independent and dependent.

24. An independent clause, also called a main clause, is a
group of words with a subject and a verb that
can stand alone as a complete sentence.
All sentences contain at least one independent
clause, and some contain more than one.

25. Pat enjoyed his first tennis
lesson.
He learned to hit a forehand
lob, and he learned to serve.
He decided to sign up for more
lessons through the summer.

26. You can join two
independent
clauses with a
FANBOYS!

27. or
nd
or
ut
r
et
o

28. Pat enjoyed his first tennis
lesson, but he was tired.
He learned to hit a forehand
lob, and he learned to serve.

29. Check that the word group
has a subject and a verb.
Check that the word group
can stand alone as a
sentence.

30. Do this as a class!

31. Expand each of the following word groups into a
sentence so that it contains an independent clause.
1. The day my divorce became final
____________________________________.
2. Although my wife and I were not getting
along, _______________________________________
__.
3. Because I had sworn to be with her
forever, __________________________________.
4. ______________________even though we tried so
hard to stay together.
5. Because we had no children, ___________________
________________________.
was one of the worst days of my life
I always thought we could patch things up
I wanted to make the marriage work
We just never got along
the divorce
was fairly simple

32. Expand each of the following word groups into a
sentence so that it contains an independent clause.
6. When we saw each other for the last time,
_________________________.
7. _____________________ because the bad memories
are fading.
8. A year after the divorce,
______________________________.
9. Although I haven’t found someone else to love,
__________________________________.
10. Because I don’t want to make the same mistake
again, _______________________________________
________________________.
we cried and said good-bye
I’m more cheerful now
I have my feet back on the ground
I hope I’ll find the right woman for me
I’ll get to know my partner
well before marrying her

34. Although a dependent clause contains a subject and
a verb, it cannot stand alone as a sentence.
To be part of a complete sentence, it needs to be
attached to or part of an independent clause.

35. Dependent clauses are also called subordinate
clauses because they often begin with one of
these words, called subordinating conjunctions:
after if until
although since when
as that where
because though while
before unless

36. Because my car broke down, I had to reschedule
the dentist appointment.
Before my uncle retired, he was a welder.
I didn’t fly in a plane until I was seventeen years
old.

37. As these examples show, you
use a comma after a
dependent clause that begins
a sentence.
You generally do not use a
comma before a dependent
clause that ends a sentence.

38.  Check that the word group has a subject and a
verb.
 Check that it begins with a word such as
because, until, before, after, although, when, or
while.
 Check that it cannot stand alone as a sentence.

52. Avoiding academic dishonesty

53. Thanks to the OWL at Purdue for
information, definitions, and exercises.

54.  Obviously plagiarism:
 Buying, stealing, or borrowing a paper (including
from the web)
 Hiring someone to write your paper for you
 Copying large sections of text from a source without
quotation marks or proper citation
 Also plagiarism:
 Using a source too closely when paraphrasing
 Building on someone else’s words or ideas without
citing their work (spoken or written)

55.  Words or ideas presented in a magazine, book,
newspaper, song, TV program, movie, Web page,
computer program, letter, advertisement, or any other
medium
 Information you gain through interviewing or
conversing with another person, face to face, over the
phone, or in writing
 When you copy the exact words or a unique phrase
 When you reprint any diagrams, illustrations, charts,
pictures, or other visual materials
 When you reuse or repost any electronically-available
media, including images, audio, video, or other media

56. Document any words, ideas, or
other productions that originate
somewhere outside of you.

57.  You do not need to cite information that is
considered “common knowledge” or is a generally
accepted fact.
 Generally, something does not need to be cited if it
is a fact that can be found in at least three reliable
sources.
 Examples:
 The sky is blue.
 Approximately 6 million Jews were killed in the
Holocaust.
 The Pythagorean theorem is a2 + b2 = c2.
 “Common knowledge” applies to specific, brief
facts.

58.  You do not need to cite when you are writing
your own experiences, your own
observations, your own insights, your own
thoughts, or your own conclusions on a subject.

59.  There are three ways to use the work of
someone else:
 Quoting
 Paraphrasing
 Summarizing
 Because we want you to build your own
understanding of the information through an
assignment, most of your use of another
person’s work will be in paraphrases and
summaries.

60.  Paraphrasing involves putting a passage from
source material into your own words. A
paraphrase must also be attributed to the original
source. Paraphrased material is usually shorter
than the original passage, taking a somewhat
broader segment of the source and condensing it
slightly.
 Paraphrasing is a useful skill because the mental
process required for successful paraphrasing helps
you to grasp the full meaning of the original.

61. 1. Reread the original passage until you understand its full meaning.
2. Set the original aside, and write your paraphrase on a note card.
3. Jot down a few words below your paraphrase to remind you later
how you envision using this material. At the top of the note
card, write a key word or phrase to indicate the subject of your
paraphrase.
4. Check your rendition with the original to make sure that your
version accurately expresses all the essential information in a new
form.
5. Use quotation marks to identify any unique term or phraseology you
have borrowed exactly from the source.
6. Record the source (including the page) on your note card so that you
can credit it easily if you decide to incorporate the material into your
paper.

62.  Summarizing involves putting the main
idea(s) into your own words, including only
the main point(s). Once again, it is necessary to
attribute summarized ideas to the original
source. Summaries are significantly shorter
than the original and take a broad overview of
the source material.

63. Go over the answers with iClickers

65.  Explain how a habit you have
follows the habit loop
 Come up with a plan to change
this habit

66.  Explain these concepts:
 The habit loop and how your habit
follows this loop
 The role of craving in habit creation in
general and in your habit specifically
 The Golden Rule of habit change and
how you might change your habit
according to this rule
 The role of belief in habit change and
how you might incorporate this concept
into your plan to change your habit.

67. You should
 Write your essay for an audience who
has read the chapters (but imagine that
the audience did the reading a month
ago).
 Use SEE paragraphs to create your
analysis paragraphs.
 Paraphrase (not quote) for this essay.
 Use the first-person pronouns (I and me)
because you are talking about yourself
and your habit!

68. You should NOT
 Summarize.
 Use other sources.
 Quote.
 Use the second-person pronoun
(you).
 Worry about
grammar, mechanics, and
punctuation until you are editing

69. A few things to remember:
 Be sure to think about the various aspects of habit
forming described by Duhigg, including the habit
loop, craving, the golden rule of habit change, and
the role of belief in habit change.
 I’d like you to include details, examples, and
paraphrases from the readings to help you develop
your analysis of your habit.
 Talk about complexities—for example, feel free to
disagree with Duhigg’s claims about habits, but be
sure to fully explain your argument.
