Are Summaries a form of Plagiarism???


I personally do not have positive feelings for summaries. I feel I am plagiarizing because I am just restating the article without any of my views/opinions. Even though summaries are not my favorite I did put a lot of time and effort into it. I tried my best and in the end that is all I can do. I think I would give myself a B. I would do this because I made sure all main points were stated and the paper flows as the original article does. I also worked very hard on the format and wording of my paper. I also edited and reedited my paper many times along with having other eyes edit it as well. I could have done better if I was another person in every area of my paper, but I can guarantee my paper is my personal best. The summary its self was the most challenging, for this was my first summary written for an English class. I don’t have any questions for you because you answered them during our one-on-one sessions.
