Remember, synthesis means you take bits of information from different sources and weave them together to make your own point or your own observation.
2. How does he synthesize all these sources? How does he go about introducing each one and weaving them together?
Pick one section of the video and explain what he’s trying to argue/show in that portion of the video and what sources he uses to support that argument/point. (Discuss at least two texts he refers to in his argument, including photographs, books, newspaper articles, etc.) How did each text support his argument in this section of the video?
3. How did the author maintain control of his argument while using each source?
In other words, how do you know you are hearing Westbrook’s opinion/argument and not the argument of the texts he’s referring to? How does he use such different sources (such as a photograph and a newspaper) yet help the viewer follow along?
How do you know that Westbrook’s argument is informed by research he did? Do you think he could have made the same argument before examining a lot of sources about WWI?
4. What does analyzing this example synthesis clarify for you about the way that you should be using sources in YOUR writing? Do you under how you are expected to use sources in your Unit 3 project?
