Summarising

When you summarise, you rearrange the text you have just read and then combine them into your own words in order to make it more simple for yourself and other readers to understand. Summarising is useful when gathering research.

By summarising, you will enable yourself to understand the content more by rereading and will expand your ability to identify and pick out key information.
To summarise, you must:

  • Read the text in order to get a thorough idea what it is about. 
  • highlight main information that is useful to your summary

In order to summarise, you have to:
  •  be certain that the information you are interpreting are accurate. 
  • not include additional information outside of the website.
  • if you use exact words from the text, make sure you quote/reference the source and author.
  • make sure the reader is aware that the content is not yours.


Summary of this article

In this article, Jeremy Corbyn is said to have been disloyal to the nation as he refused to sing the national anthem at a Battle of Britain remembrance memorial. Tory and Labour MP's named him ''dishonorable'' whereas Jeremy Corbyn claimed he stood in respectful silence. In this article, the author targets much negativity towards Corbyn.
