1. Include the link in the discussion board post

2. The synopsis should be in three sections (maybe even just three paragraphs if you’re concise)

a. Abstract (two sentences: one goes over the summary, and one covers your analysis.)

b. Summary (summarize the article: include the authors, title of piece, major points and quotes)

c. Analysis (your own thoughts: use one tool of analysis)

Be very thorough in your summary, capture all important aspects of the article, including any background information. 

Organize this information into topical paragraphs - you may have to rearrange the way the information was written in the article.

REMINDER!! Don’t forget to include your statement of thought in the abstract.
