CONCLUSION

A conclusion is the last part of something, its end or result. When you write
a paper, you always end by summing up your arguments and drawing
a conclusion about what you've been writing about.

DRAWING CONCLUSIONS
is using information that is implied or inferred to make meaning out of
what is not clearly stated. Writers give readers hints or clues that help them
read between the lines, since not everything is explicitly stated or spelled
out all the time.

 Pointers for Writing a Conclusion

In many ways, the conclusion of a paper mirrors its introduction.

Whereas the introduction starts from a broad (but not overly broad)
context and narrows down to your thesis, the conclusion starts from the
narrow results of your specific arguments and expands them into a
broader application. The introduction gives the reader a context in which
to understand your arguments; the conclusion gives the reader a context
in which to appreciate them.

Like the introduction, the conclusion can provide historical, personal,

modern, or scholarly context. In each case, however, your task in the
conclusion is to answer questions related to whatever contexts you
choose. Here are some possible questions for each type of context.

1. Historical context How did the events you have described

affect subsequent history? How have those events affected the modern
world? How does your interpretation of those events affect your
understanding of the period in which they occurred?

2. Personal context How has your view of the issue changed

because of what you learned while researching and writing this paper?
Have you had any experiences that relate to what you've learned?
(Note that, as usual, personal anecdotes are more appropriate for
informal writings than for formal ones.)

3. Modern context How does the technology or philosophy you

discussed affect society today? Has an author's work had a lasting
effect on society?

4. Scholarly context How might your findings affect future

research? Do your claims about a particular author or work say
 anything about other authors or works? Have you resolved any long-
standing debates?

Steps in Drawing Conclusions

Look at the clues in the story.

Make connections between places of information.
Think about what you know from past experiences.
Decide if what you know applies to the story.
Consider information that is not directly stated.
Use all of what you know to draw a conclusion.
