SOC101: Principles of Sociology (Avedikian ): Synthesize Your Sources
Synthesizing Your Sources
Synthesizing means to combine a large number of things into a cohesive whole. When you do research, synthesizing your sources can help to bring together different ideas and theories.
Practice Your In-Text Citations
- The Basics of APA In-Text CitationWhen using APA format, follow the author-date method of in-text citation. This means that the author's last name and the year of publication for the source should appear in the text, for example, (Jones, 1998), and a complete reference should appear in the reference list at the end of the paper.
If you are referring to an idea from another work but NOT directly quoting the material, or making reference to an entire book, article or other work, you only have to make reference to the author and year of publication and not the page number in your in-text reference. All sources that are cited in the text must appear in the reference list at the end of the paper. - In-Text Citations: Author/AuthorsAPA style has a series of important rules on using author names as part of the author-date system. There are additional rules for citing indirect sources, electronic sources, and sources without page numbers.

Mind Mapping
Mind mapping is a simple technique for drawing information in diagrams, instead of writing it in sentences. The diagrams always take the same basic format of a tree, with a single starting point in the middle that branches out, and divides again and again. The tree is made up of words or short sentences connected by lines. The lines that connect the words are part of the meaning.
Here our research question is: What are the health implications on humans due to Climate change?
