When you write a summary of one of your sources, you need to use proper in-text citation or else you are committing plagiarism. Here is an example of a framing technique used to introduce and end your summary. You frame the summarized material between a signal phrase and the parenthetical in-text citation. I'll write this example in APA style.
you: Far fewer women enter computer programming as a career than men. Visit any
signal computer sciences department and the disparity will be obvious. According to
phrase: Laura Sydell's NPR report (2013) "Blazing the Trail for Female Programmers,"
summary: female programmers make up only 20% of their field. However, women entrepreneurs
who head computer companies are attempting to change the situation. They say that
it is crucial to insist on a diverse hiring pool when dealing with recruiting firms.
Interest in the field is growing among women, too, as evidenced by high enrollment in
workshops like Rails Bridge. An added incentive is that the field can be ideal for
citation: women who are raising families and need flexible scheduling (Sydell, 2013). Thus,
you: there are many reasons why the gender imbalance in computer programming may
change in the future.
