After we searched information from other sources like books,
internet, magazines and so on. The need to complete our report doesn’t stop
there. Searching information is a big process. However, the present information
in the report is the most important thing. We take information from many
sources, but we have to combine them in such a way that creates new information
for our report. This process includes two elements which are synthesis and
summarizing.
Synthesis is the process that we need to use for our report.
Synthesis is about organizing the different pieces to create a beautiful meaning.
This is like putting a puzzle together to make a nice picture. Why we need to
put all of pieces together, because we must reorganize and create our own
explanations for what we are learning, our own definition of our lives. If we
just put everything that we have found into our report, it is not our own
report it is like other works. We can learn from what we searched on the
internet, but we need to make them become our own knowledge by using our own
words. To synthesis information, first we have to look for themes, ideas and
ask questions whether it relevant or not. Then we create images which relate
what we read to prior knowledge. Next is draw conclusion for what we read, make
judgments. Synthesis will help our point go smoothly. Synthesizing is the
creation of a whole. It goes on throughout the process of reading, not just at
the end. It is bringing together ideas, facts and weaving them together.
Whenever, we present the information to our report we have
to summarizing what we read first.
Summarizing is the strategy that allows us
to categorize and classify the information gathered as readers. When we read
long piece, we need to regroup and making notes. Summarizing is identifying key
points and organizes thoughts, a listing of the parts, summarizing usually
occurs at the end. Summarizing is a part of synthesis
From what I have learnt, to present our information we have
to put them together by using synthesis and summarize information before we
synthesis. Synthesis look easy but it is very difficult. I will try to practice
it. Through the process of synthesizing, our thinking deepens and our
understanding grows. Happy with what I have learnt, a useful lesson for my
studying and my job in future.
