Conclusions

I was just talking to Victoria today and we were taking about the conclusions and recommendations for the Module 3 work.

Conclusions are at the end but are also an important part of communication your study - they are the way that you tell others what you know form a collection of your experience and the experience/research/ideas of others.

How do you tell others what you know?

Here are a few links for conclusions - remember we are doing a variation of a report - so first person (not third person) and also focussing on how you have gained and achieved knowing something about your practice/discipline/field/personal goals etc....so take into account that these conclusions might also relate to more formal academic writing or report writing that have slightly altered purposes and audiences.

Please add others in the comments!!

    1. Thanks for this Paula - some very useful links, and interesting reading. I like to think of concluding as drawing everything you have found together into one big "bubble" or "cloud" and bringing in to a catchy sentenced/paragraphs that still leaves the reader with something to think about.
