Title the summary (e.g., Summary of “Article Title” by Author’s Name), and then give contextual details such as the article title, publication title, and publication date in the first sentence. include a paraphrase of the author’s thesis near the beginning of the summary. Do not try to rewrite the article. It should be clear who the author of the piece is, and you should give them credit. This is accomplished through the correct use of pronouns and signal phrases. Do not review the article. Your opinion is not part of this assignment: be objective. You should concentrate on the main ideas of the article and avoid responding to the article. Avoid directly quoting from the article because you have very little room in 200-300 words for quotation. Do not miss key details of the article, but do not include minor details: i.e., the summary should be a “bird’s eye view” overview of the significant points from the article, and the reader of your summary should be able to understand the article’s key points without having to read the article
