Abstract

Paraphrasing is one of the important techniques in writing which helps students to avoid plagiarism. The paraphrase is mostly used in students’ academic writing especially in writing a proposal, but it sometimes can be challenging for them. Students may create a poor paraphrase that can lead to a distortion of the original author’s idea, concept or message and even alleged plagiarism. To avoid this, students must recognize the appropriate criteria in creating an acceptable paraphrase. This study is aimed to examine students’ paraphrases in proposal writing. Purposefully, the paraphrases are analyzed based the appropriateness levels made by students of English Teacher Education Department. In addition, this research aims to find particular techniques that students use to meet the appropriateness level in paraphrasing. This research is conducted using qualitative descriptive method. In particular, 40 paraphrases were analyzed through a set of criteria which have been modified from some theoretical sources. Besides, to find particular techniques that students use to meet the appropriateness level, the researcher conducted an interview section to support the data. Based on the findings and the discussion, this research figured out that there were four types of appropriateness level made by students. The result shows that students’ paraphrases are relatively low. Specifically, there were 48% paraphrases as somewhat inappropriate and 33% paraphrases as inappropriate. These two levels are categorized as poor paraphrasing which is included as plagiarism work. On the other hand, the number of paraphrases which can be included as an acceptable paraphrase are only 2% as appropriate and 17% as somewhat appropriate. Furthermore, students’ techniques in creating a good paraphrase is relative low since most of them do not know the way how to make a good paraphrase.
