How to write my Thesis Conclusion?

 

 

I found a presentation about "Writing the Conclusion Chapter for your Thesis" by Louise Edwards, I think it is an amazing small material for those who are searching how to write this chapter just read a 2 page pdf including the presentation's slides.

 

You can download the material from this link.

 

The best part of the presentation from my opinion is this one..

 

Basic Functions of a conclusion

 

 1. To summarize:

– What you researched
– Nature of your main arguments
– How you researched it
– What you discovered
– What pre-existing views were challenged

2. To provide an overview of:

• The new knowledge or information discovered
• The significance of your research (where is it new?)
• The limitations of your thesis (concepts, data)
• Speculation on the implications of these limitations
• Areas for further development and research
(alternative data sets; links with other fields; different
method applied to same data)

 

 Hope you'll find this useful.. I really liked that the presenter asks us to be more positive while writing this chapter since it plays an important role in wrapping up your work and your long-term effort :)
