On Writing Summaries:
Writing a good summary is not as easy as it may appear. It actually requires quite a bit of finesse. First the you must read and comprehend the text. This may involve unpacking lengthy sentences and decoding challenging vocabulary. Then you must identify main ideas and key points, which means that you must have a good enough understanding of the text to distinguish between essential and nonessential information. Finally you must express this information in your own words. This means that summarizing a text requires both comprehension and expression skills. Additionally, summaries should not contain opinions, background knowledge, or personal information; rather, a summary should be entirely text based.
