Module Reporting Findings, Drawing Conclusions and
Making Recommendations
2 Lesson 2- Forming and Writing Logical Conclusions

This module will help the learners form and write logical conclusions of their
research study.

Learning Target

In this module, you are expected to form and write logical conclusions of your
research study.

Vocabulary List

The following term will be encountered in the lesson:

Logical Conclusions
shows the readers the value of completely developed argument or thesis
not a summary of work but a listing of major outcomes derived from the study
does not state what has been done in the study instead it brings out the
outcome of the results and discussion in terms of statements
the answer to the main problem of the study

Warming Up

Write T if the statement is true and F if the statement is false.Write your answer
in a separate sheet of paper.
_____1. In technical or academic writing, a well-crafted conclusion can provide the
final word on the value of your analysis, research or paper.
_____2. Researchers should not complete their conclusions with conviction.
_____3. Many times, the abstract and conclusions are performed for a quick
assessment of the usefulness of the paper by the readers.
_____4. Conclusion section must be written with utmost importance.
_____5. The concluding part is comprised of the abstract, summary of findings,
conclusion and recommendation.

Learning About It
These are some information to help you understand the ways to end your
research study with your conclusions.

After learning the means to form findings from a given research problem,
you are now ready to form logical conclusions on a given research study.

A well-written conclusion provides you with important opportunities to

demonstrate to the reader your understanding of the research problem. According to
Bunton (2005), these will include the following:

1. Present the last word on the issues or gaps raised in your paper. Just as the
introduction gives a first impression to your reader, the conclusion offers a chance
to leave a lasting impression. You can do this by highlighting key points in your
analysis or results or by noting important or unexpected implications applied to
practice.
2. Summarize your thought and convey the larger significance of your study.
The conclusion is an opportunity to concisely answer the “So What?” question by
placing the study within the context of past research about the topic you’ve
investigated.
3. Identify how a gap in the literature has been addressed. The conclusion can
be where you describe how a previously identified gap in the literature has been
filled by your research.
4. Demonstrate the importance of your ideas. The conclusion offers you the
opportunity to elaborate on the impact and significance of your findings.
5. Introduce possible new or expanded ways of thinking about the research
problem. This does not refer to introducing new information but to offer new
insights and creative approaches for framing or contextualizing the research
problem based on the results of your study.

In writing the conclusion of your paper, the following general rules are
suggested:
a. State your conclusion clearly in simple language. State how your findings differ
or support those others and why.
b. Do not simply reiterate your results or the discussion of your results. Provide
a synthesis of arguments presented in the paper to show how these converge
to address the research problem and the overall objectives of your study.
c. Indicate opportunities for future research if you haven’t already done so in the
discussion section of your paper. Highlighting the need for further research
provides the reader with evidence that you have an in-depth awareness of the
research problem.

2
www.shsph.blogspot.com
Consider the following points to help ensure your conclusion is appropriate:
1. If the argument or purpose of your paper is complex, you may need to
summarize the argument for your reader.
2. If prior to your conclusion, you have not yet explained the significance of your
findings or if you are proceeding inductively, use the end of your paper to
describe your main points and explain their significance.
3. Move from detailed to a general level of consideration that returns the topic to
the context provided by the introduction or within a new context that emerges
from the data.

CONCLUSIONS
Essentially, the conclusion contains insights drawn from the findings of each
problem. These insights answer the questions presented at the beginning of the
research paper. However, the conclusion to be drawn should not come from the
indirect implications of the study. It should be limited within the information actually
yielded by the conducted investigations.
The following are the conclusions of a research conducted to Le Thanh Hien
High School students in Vietnam on speaking anxiety.
