Lesson

Drawing Conclusions

What’s In After learning the previous lesson in Module 5, which was the interpretation of data, you now have the idea of what is the result and findings of your study. You have to be very clear with your results and findings of your study since that would be the basis for your conclusion which would create an impact to your readers. It is also expected that at this point, you have already drafted your Summary of Findings. As part of the research paper, Summary of Findings include the overall purpose, the main and specific research problem, the research methodology, and the major findings. Make sure that this part is presented briefly in a straightforward manner. The summary of findings is where you are going to generate your conclusions. In this lesson, you are going to generate answers or conclusions as what you have interpreted from the data gathered from your research study. What I Need to Know A conclusion is an important part of your research study. It wraps up your writing by summarizing the main idea for your readers. This brings your writing to a smooth close and creates well- written answers to your research questions. You have to consider the main idea that you want to convey to your readers and have a sense of closure in the study. It usually starts answering the specific moving to the general inquiry. It must avoid further elaboration which has already been done in the presentation of the results and discussion, and summary of findings. In the conclusion part, no new information is expected. Researchers reconsider the research questions and draw answers for these questions. It is very important that the conclusions are limited within the main objective of the study and research questions presented at the beginning of the research paper. Hence, conclusions are precise statement that directly answers the stated research questions. Furthermore, the purpose of your conclusion is to make the readers understand the impact of your research on them. It is a synthesis of the key points and not just a summary of the entire research study. 1

What’s New Activity 1: Therefore, I Conclude… Direction: Read the statements at the left column and write your conclusion at the right column. Situation Therefore, I conclude that….

1. You are attending your Math class at 3:00 P.M., and suddenly you heard a loud bang from the sky.

Theoretical implication is a statement that supports or contradicts a theory, previous study findings, or creates something entirely new. It also represents the literature in your theoretical section. Example : Based on Bolman’s Leadership Framework, results indicate that majority of the Student Government officers significantly possess symbolic leadership. Given that this is their strength, it supports that the results that leadership style is significantly correlated to two-way communication of the organization. Results also support that avenue for open forum or discussion were provided. Here is an example of how conclusion answers the research questions and was drawn from summary of findings. Research Title: Predominant Factors Affecting the Career Choice of Grade 12 Students in Bamega National High School Research Questions Summary of Findings Conclusion

1. What are different influences in the career choice of Grade 12 students? Career choice of students is largely influenced by environmental factor. In light of the findings, the following conclusion is drawn, the chose career of students are influenced by someone significant to them. People who have made an impact in someone’s life affects major decisions in life. What’s More Activity 2 : In a Relationship and More!

What Is It These are the Guidelines in writing your Recommendations according to Barrot, ( 2017 , p. 214 ).

1. Write your recommendations based from your conclusions and limitations of your study. Align it to the purpose and scope of your research.
2. Write a practical and doable recommendations. Be specific.
3. Make it concise and clear.
4. Avoid recommendations that are easy to address. Please take note that there are different ways of formatting your recommendations. You can have it numbered or in paragraphs, depending on your institutional format. 10

Here is an example of how recommendations must relate to the findings and conclusions. Research Title: Predominant Factors Affecting the Career Choice of Grade 12 Students in Bamega National High School Research Questions Summary of Findings Conclusion Recommendation What are different influences in the career choice of Grade 12 students? Career choice of students is largely influenced by environmental factor. In light of the findings, the following conclusion is drawn, the chose career of students are influenced by someone significant to them. People who have made an impact in someone’s life affects major decisions in life. Parents are encouraged to discuss about career choices of their children. They should also determine the significant others in the life of their children. Career guidance counselors should conduct a discussion on how the students will determine sound choices from those people who might influence their career choice. Further research might do on the degree of impact of significant others not only on career choices but other decisions made by an adolescent.
