Indirect quote / Summary/ Paraphrase
In the text, you reproduce the contents of the source in your own words, i.e. you reformulate the original text. This is called an indirect quote or summary. Make sure not to distort the meaning of the original source when you do a rewrite. When you use an indirect quote, the author's last name and year must be given. There are slightly different practices when it comes to page numbers. You should provide page numbers unless otherwise specified or the subject teacher has other wishes.

By using a kindergartner's concept of cheating and "pretend" the authors get across what they mean by presence:
Be present – you cannot cheat with your presence. To cheat with your presence means that you are only "pretend" present, and we who work in kindergartens know that "pretend" is a place found only in the imagination. (...) your employees will see through you immediately. (Nakling & Vavik, 2010, p. 83)
If part of a quote is omitted, use an ellipsis (...) to indicate where text is omitted.
