As two important aspects of academic writing --summarising and paraphrasing, we need to master differenrt skills to make it.
In my opinion, both of the two skills are based on understanding the overall meaning of your reference, as well as using your own words to express the idea you get.
On the other hand, there are some discrepancies between summarising and paraphrasing. For summarising, using as less words as possible to get the main point is the chief aim for us, since we usually refer to so many different books involved in our research area in the MA stage, and it is not necessary to put all detailed information in it. With respect to paraphrasing, writing the idea you refer to in your own word should be draw attention, moreove, keeping the same meaning is also important, which is different from summarising.
