Expectations and Response th SAW, Chpt. 3

I expect chapter three to cover and explain what explanatory synthesis is. I have never heard of explanatory synthesis so I am curious as to what the chapter might cover. I learned what a synthesis is, and more importantly what an explanatory synthesis is. I learned that it is a type of writing. Like an arumentative paper. I also learned that in a explanatory synthesis that you need to keep your opinion out of the paper. This is tough but it is your job to just present the information and only the authors opinions. You are to be subjective in your writing. I feel this will help me from now on in school when I am to write about only information.

    Okay... but don't you have any specific points to recall? E.g., organize by ideas, not by sources.
