How to Research Conclusion

Conclusions are often the most difficult part of a paper to write, and many authors feel that they have nothing left to say after having written the paper. The conclusion is often what a reader remembers best. Your conclusion should be the best part of your paper. How to write conclusion?

Show your readers that your paper was meaningful and useful. Show them how the points you made and the support and examples you used were not random, but fit together. Give your reader something to think about, perhaps a way to use your paper in the "real" world. How to write conclusion?

If your paper was written to argue a point or to persuade the reader, then your conclusion will summarize the main points of your arguments presented in the paper. You will also want to restate your thesis and conclude with a statement of your position on the topic. Different conclusions

If you paper is an analysis of a topic where you have done in-depth study on a particular subject and presented your findings, your conclusion will summarize your analysis of the topic, restate your thesis, and pose suggestions for further study. How to write conclusion?

Echoing the introduction: Echoing your introduction can be a good strategy if it is meant to bring the reader full-circle. If you begin by describing a scenario, you can end with the same scenario as proof that your essay was helpful in creating a new understanding. Strategies?

Introduction Thousands of hours of television are watched by children each year. Many of these television shows portray violence and sexuality. More and more children are turning to violence and sex to solve their personal problems." Strategies?

Conclusion "Only recently have research began to show how violence and nudity in television shows are harmful to children. Children are more violent with their peers and superiors in the school systems often stemming from the violence they have seen on television. How can you make a difference in your children? How many hours of television do you allow your children to watch?" Strategies?

Challenging the reader: By issuing a challenge to your readers, you are helping them to redirect the information in the paper, and they may apply it to their own lives. Strategies?

Though serving on a jury is not only a civic responsibility but also an interesting experience, many people still view jury duty as a chore that interrupts their jobs and the routine of their daily lives. However, juries are part of America's attempt to be a free and just society. Thus, jury duty challenges us to be interested and responsible citizens. Strategies?

Looking to the future: Looking to the future can emphasize the importance of your paper or redirect the readers' thought process. It may help them apply the new information to their lives or see things more globally. Strategies?

Example Without well-qualified teachers, schools are little more than buildings and equipment. If higher- paying careers continue to attract the best and the brightest students, there will not only be a shortage of teachers, but the teachers available may not have the best qualifications. Our youth will suffer. And when youth suffers, the future suffers. Strategies?

Posing questions: Posing questions, either to your readers or in general, may help your readers gain a new perspective on the topic, which they may not have held before reading your conclusion. It may also bring your main ideas together to create a new meaning. Strategies?

Campaign advertisements should help us understand the candidate's qualifications and positions on the issues. Instead, most tell us what a boob or knave the opposing candidate is, or they present general images of the candidate as a family person or God-fearing American. Do such advertisements contribute to creating an informed electorate or a people who choose political leaders the same way they choose soft drinks and soap? Strategies?
