ENGL 105 Synthesis Chart
This synthesis chart is designed to help you combine your research with the goal
of supporting of your claims. You should have at least two sources of support for
each topic sentence.
Be sure to include some type of information referencing where you found your
information (such as a page number) and any other information that you will need
when you write your References list (such as a URL).
You’ll also need to state the current date each time you update the chart so I’ll
know you’re keeping up with it. You will fill in this chart using your own topic
sentences, claims, or ideas and corresponding researched support and keep it
updated during the semester.
Also keep track of any inconsistencies, conflicts, or disagreements between your
sources.
An example is given to you.
