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 of research is not a single innate
skill. Rather, it is a process learned through time and practice. In this
assignment, you will engage in the last part of the synthesis process.
