As a nurse pursuing an advanced degree, you are becoming a scholar-practitioner, which means you’re developing good communication skills. Writing in a scholarly way means you back up your ideas with information from books and use APA style correctly.

One challenge in scholarly writing is taking someone else’s ideas and explaining them in your own words. When you do this, you also need to give credit to the original author for their ideas. This helps you use their thoughts in your work without copying them. This quiz is here to help you see how well you understand APA writing rules and avoiding plagiarism.
