Synthesis is the act of creating something new from multiple existing entities. Synthesis of research, then, is creating a new idea from existing ideas.

SYNTHESIS PAPER

Introduction

Synthesis is coming up with a new idea from the annotated bibliographies given. This means that you completely come up with something new and very original about each title of the bibliography that you are studying. This paper will succinctly discuss or synthesize three books that I already annotated in the earlier class discussions.
