One way to avoid plagiarism is to take good notes. Which of the following describes the "close the book" theory?

OpenStudy (toxicsugar22):

a. don't open the book and guess what the text say before reading it. Then, open the book to see if you were right. b. after reading the text. close the book and write down your own interpretation of the text. Then, open the book to make sure you are accurate and did not use the authors word's c. read the text in the book, close the book, and come back in 24 hours to read it again, Then, close the book and write down your thoughts on the subject.

OpenStudy (toxicsugar22):

i think it is B, but im not to sure

OpenStudy (anonymous):

B

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well, B. is an interpretation of what is written, and C. is the reflections on what is written, each having some validity. The "Close the Book Theory" is a theory I didn't even know existed until now, so I'm not sure.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

And doesn't seem to show up easily in a Google Search, are you sure that a "Close the Book Theory" is a real theory? Lol

OpenStudy (toxicsugar22):

yeah i have never heard of close the book thory

OpenStudy (toxicsugar22):

yes that is what the question says

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yea, I don't think that there is any kind of hypothesized and predictable parts to that concept which theories have a strong basis on anyway =0P

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It can't be option C because it would be un-smart to wait 24 hours after you read it to come back and read it again then write your thoughts on the subject.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Option B is the most logical answer

OpenStudy (toxicsugar22):

yes so b is is

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well option A is the only way that you could potentially without meaning too write what was said when you were "right".

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Where B and C you would have an idea what was said and therefore be able to avoid plagiarism.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes, but C isn't logical. Would you read the text in the book then wait 24 hours to go back and read it again before you write your thoughts about the subject?

OpenStudy (toxicsugar22):

no i dont thik so

OpenStudy (toxicsugar22):

i dont think it is is C

OpenStudy (toxicsugar22):

the answer is B

OpenStudy (toxicsugar22):

I have another question

OpenStudy (toxicsugar22):
