A synopsis is primarily a condensation or a short presentation of Project.
A synopsis is not a list of opinions, or an examination of the feelings and/or conscious states, e.g. likes, dislikes, preferences, annoyances, etc. of the writer of the synopsis. if the writer wants to addend his or her reactions, he or she must take care to explain all the relevant points in the original Project reacted to.
What Should A Synopsis Look Like?
Part A: The Body of the Synopsis -- the minimal conditions.
- First indicate a concern of the developer, or a point argued by the developer. A complex Project will have more than one of these but treat them one by one.
- What secondary points does the developer make to establish the importance of his or her concern, or to reach the conclusion of his or her argument?
- What reasons does the developer give for these secondary points?
- Answer questions 1, 2, and 3 for each important item in the project.
- Your personal judgments must be directed only at items brought up in Part A.Give reasons for your judgments. These can be the citation of counter-evidence, concerns about the consequences of the points made by the developer, or similar things. These reasons are never just your feelings. Your responsibility as a scholar is to give the reader of your synopsis -- assumed to be someone other than a close friend of yours -- good reasons for agreeing with your evaluations.
