Question 9

bringing together and integrating responses to the various issues and aspects of
the problem into coherent solutions

Answer 9

Synthesis

Question 10

Approaches on Synthesizing

Answer 10

1. Isolate 1 or 2 key issues which have value or importance assigned to
   them, and develop solutions around them
2. Study analogous situations and use them as models for developing
   possible solutions to the problem at hand
3. Develop ideal solutions for parts of the problem which can then be
   tempered by the reality of what exists
