Description

Inquiry process overview: Evaluate and draw conclusions

Synthesize data, evidence, and/or information, and make informed, critical judgements based on that data, evidence, and/or information.

To synthesize all of the information you’ve collected, you can combine and arrange data, eliminate information that isn’t important, and highlight new understandings. Analyze what the evidence tells you, considering all sides of the issue. Determine the implications of the information; in other words, what impact the information has on you and others. Finally, write a balanced, logical, well-supported conclusion.
