Question

It is very important for doctoral students to research and write at the academic level. In addition, all doctoral students must have the skill sets to understand and apply the practice of synthesizing all your research to validate all claims. This means having TWO or more sources per paragraph relating to the same topic.

For this assignment, students will complete a 6-full page paper covering three topics: (a) scholarly research and synthesis, (b) the importance of communication, and (c) student's responsibility at a doctorate level. These three components are imperative to acquire knowledge of and master to be successful within the doctoral program. Each component will be 2 pages long, in which each paragraph will be synthesized with a minimum of 2 scholarly sources no older than 5 years (2015 to 2020). The students will use the attached template that is formatted for this assignment requirements as well as under the 7th edition APA format.

The following issues must be included in your research:

Scholarly research and synthesis: (a) define scholarly research, (b) why it is important to use these sources to validate your claims, (c) define synthesis of sources, and (d) why it is important to synthesize by having two or more sources per paragraph.

Importance of communication: (a) discuss the various components of communication, (b) the need for professional communication with colleagues and professors, and (c) the need to read in detail all requirements and expectations of a college course. In the modules are two links to review that can assist you: (a)faculty-student compact, and (b)communication policy and netiquette.

Student's responsibility: (a) the importance of staying on task, (b) the importance of submitting work on time and not procrastinate, and (c) the importance of keeping your professor up-to-date with all situations, especially emergencies and medical issues.

You must also have aconclusiondescribing what you learned from this assignment to help you as a doctoral student.

The format must be academic paragraphs of at least 5 academic sentences in full format: no bullets, no abbreviations, no acronyms, no contractions, and no direct quotes, just your full interpretation of the topic and your research.

Introduction
Scholarly research has several components that doctoral level aspirants need to pursue. The recognition of the qualified sources is the first point to initiate the process of research. The following is an analysis of the validation and significance of the research sources as well as the responsibility of the students in order to meet the requisites of the research outcomes. The examination of the same is expanded towards the importance of communication and its proper establishment in the process of research. 
Scholarly Research and Synthesis 
At first, it is significant to note here that in the process of pursing doctoral programs, scholarly research and its synthesis is one of the core components to be accomplished by the scholars. To define scholarly research, it is the initiation of the process, where the well-qualified sources for the research topic, are identified and listed (Halevi et al., 2017). The criteria of scholarly research are not limited to one database; the researchers have to look for the several databases and scholarly studies that are published in the last five years. Obsolete studies are not counted as a part of the scholarly research because they tend to present the outdated status or data, which is of no use to the current topics especially in the context of scientific studies. The research outcomes are the selection of the suitable and relevant peer reviewed journal articles, which are written and published by the experts of their respective fields. One of the main standpoints in the process of identification is to ensure that the source publisher of the article is a reputable journal (Fusch et al., 2018).
Further, it is important to use the sources in validating the claims made by the researcher because the sources affirm the claims by having relevant information that supports the claim. In other words, the claims established by a research process need evidence from the previous studies and it can be done by having credible sources to be added to the list (Halevi et al., 2017). What makes this validation, an essential ingredient for research claim, is the evidence and support taken from the studies. It is more like putting the sources in a list within the premise of the research itself. The claims made and established by the experts in the past few years, five years in particular, are reputable enough to reach to a common consensus about the present research topic and its outcomes (Fusch et al., 2018).
	Additionally, synthesis of the selected studies is another important factor that determines the quality of the research process. It is the process, in which multiple sources are selected, filtered and they are compared or contrasted with a view to find commonalities in their research courses. Most often, there is a literature review section in every research process where the previous studies that are the most relevant ones are examined and they are tested for their strengths and weaknesses for supporting the selected research topic (Halevi et al., 2017). In other words, a connection is seen and tried out by the researchers when they seek investigation of the selected sources.
