How to Write the Conclusion

Abstract

To synthesize means to combine existing elements. Since your reader has already read your paper, you don’t want to summarize or repeat the things that were in your paper. Instead, highlight the main points from your paper that you think are important, emphasizing them in a different way than before. One strategy is to dedicate one sentence to each main point from your paper. SLC STUDENT LEARNING CENTER www.csuchico.e du/slc I 530-898-6839 ................................. a practical handout
