Follow these steps:
1. Consider your purpose in writing. What do you want to find out?
2. Select and carefully read your sources, according to your purpose.
3. Re-read the sources, mentally summarizing each. Identify those aspects or parts of your sources that will help you in fulfilling your purpose. When rereading, label or underline the passages for main ideas, key terms, and any details you want to use in the synthesis.
4. Formulate a research question.
5. Decide how you will use your source material and take notes. How will the information and the ideas in your sources help you to fulfill your purpose? Re-read your sources and write down the information from your sources that will best develop and support your research question.
6. Develop an organizational plan, according to your research question. How will you arrange your material?
7. Write the first draft of your synthesis, following your organizational plan. Be flexible with your plan, however, and allow yourself room to incorporate new ideas you discover as you write.
8. Document your sources. Use APA-style in-text citations and a Works Cited list to credit your sources for all material you quote, paraphrase, or summarize.
9. Revise your synthesis. Insert transitional words and phrases where necessary. Integrate all quotations so they flow smoothly within your own sentences. Use attribution phrases to distinguish between your sources’ ideas and your own ideas. Make sure the essay reads smoothly, logically, and clearly from beginning to end. Check for grammatical correctness, punctuation, and spelling.
