Remember this is a debatable sythesis question. It is a synthesis question because you have to synthesise the sources you are given (not necessarily all of the sources but at least two) with what you know in advance. You should treat this like an essay. You should identify the big points (factors) that will form the first sentences of your paragraphs, explain these points and provide evidence from the sources you are given (make this clear by referring to the letter of source) and your own knowledge. Also remember to produce a brief introduction - which establishes your response to the question and what big points you are going to make - and a conclusion.
The level descriptors of the left show how you will be assessed. Note the importance of including both information from the sources and your own knowledge. |
