Direct vs Indirect Citing:
Direct citing is directly from the author or text and is normally taken word for word and requires quotation marks (" ") at the front and back of the quote. At the end state the author and page or website in parenthesis (Author, page #)
Indirect citing is where you paraphrase or inference what the author says rather than stating it word for word. This does not require quotation marks, however there still must be a citing of author and page number in parenthesis at the end (author, page #).
The ICE model is easy to remember. It stands for Introduce the quote, cite it, and then explain it's importance. Explaining is what students forget most. When explaining your quote think about "How does this prove my point?" and it will make your writing stronger
