Title of the Topic: HOW TO WRITE A CONCLUSION FOR A RESEARCH PAPER

I. WHAT IS THE TOPIC ALL ABOUT?

The conclusion is the last, yet not the easiest part of a research paper. It must
summarize the whole paper and explain its main purpose. This section also shouldn’t
sound too dry.
Tips to consider when you are writing a conclusion for a research paper.
* Restate your topic.
* Restate your thesis statement.
* Summarize main points of your paper.
* Don’t repeat your ideas in the exact same way as in the body.
* Discuss the significance of your points.
* Make Your Conclusion Effective Basic synthesis .
* Provide a basic synthesis of everything stated before.
* Keep things together.
* Logic is important.
* Ask your readers instead of providing them with answers.
* Give a recommendation.
* Avoid Common Mistakes.
II. WHAT ARE SOME VARIATIONS OR DEVIATIONS FROM THE NORMAL
PROCEDURES?

 The conclusion must summarize the paper. At the same time, you don’t have
to just re-write main points, because such conclusions are quite banal.
 Another way to create an impressive conclusion is to ask your readers instead
of providing them with answers. However, note that such a creative approach
may be inappropriate for some kinds of research papers. We suggest trying
this method in case you’re writing a research paper on some social issues or
politics. Your question must be directly related to the central topic and
purpose of the paper.
 Ask readers to draw their own conclusions.

III. CONCLUSION

You can end your paper with a story related to the subject and so illustrate why
it’s so important with a particular example. Don’t apologize. Never express concerns
about results of your research or your authority. Avoid such phrases as “this is only
my personal opinion”, or “I don’t know for sure”. Never use the first person at all.
Writing in the first person is too informal and cannot be used for academic papers.
