Synthesis is simply a way of getting people to believe a claim is true. Synthesis deals with all of the ways to argue and support the claim. On page 146, it states that synthesis are used “in order to establish fscts, to make statements of value, and recommend policies. Synthesis should be associated with Claim, Support, and Assumption. Claims are “propositions or conclusions that are trying to be proved.” To prove a claim, support must be used to reenforce the claim. With claims and positive support allows the audience to make assumption about the outcome. Systhesis should be logical. The three parts should come together to ultimately prove the claim.
