How to Write a Key Detail Summary A Key Detail summary shows that you have read and understood information and can distinguish
what is useful to support a Claim and Reason (even if you haven't discovered your claim yet). It is
common in many 100 and 200 level classes to get assignments that ask you to read a certain
number of articles and summarize them. This is also a very common type of writing assignment in
graduate school.
How to produce a summary:
1. Choose the key details based on the Guiding Questions:
2. Copy/paste original material
3. Delete trivial material unnecessary to understanding
4. Delete repetition
5. Condense using your own words
6. Revise for coherence; add attributions
The features of a summary: I
1. Represents the original accurately and fairly. Written with precise, accurate language in a
neutral, objective tone.

you have to be very careful of your word choice.

claims, the author suggests, etc. These are Attributions.
4. Write a complete MLA citation at the end of your summary.
