Conclusion

Introduction

The conclusion of your literature review should provide a synthesis of all the research you have done so that your reader understands the state of the field or topic. It is also an opportunity to provide your readers with a sense of closure. This section discusses how to effectively conclude your literature review.

Conclusions generally consist of a restatement of your thesis or main idea and a reminder of your work’s significance. Recall that your introductions typically began at a more general level than your research’s limited topic but that you moved from that general, attention-grabbing information, to a specific research question. Your conclusion generally moves in the reverse direction, beginning with the specific points of your argument, and then transitions back out to the larger topic.

In transitioning to the larger stakes of your project, you might address what further research is necessary for a fuller answer to your research question or opposing viewpoints that you do not otherwise address. However, if you use either of these methods for transitioning in your conclusion to the broader topic your research informs, be sure to do so strategically. What you want to avoid is raising any new topics or new questions that your work does not address, as doing so will make your research seem unfinished.

The conclusion of your literature review must achieve closure, a sense that the project is finished. In literature, closure is often achieved through repetition, and so repeating our thesis statements, in new words of course, helps the reader begin to feel closure. The power of repetition to make us feel something is done is most apparent in short poems. Think of something like “Roses are red, violets are blue. Here is a valentine, because I love you.” The rhyme of blue and you create an aural repetition that confers a sense of closure. Compare the sense of ending you have at the final “you” to the suspended feeling after “valentine.” Another example of repetition creating a sense of closure is in closing potentially infinite lists. Think, for example, of a list like “I hate you because…” This list could include almost any attribute. “I hate you because you are tall, because you made fun of my brother, because you are a phony, etc.” If you append a sentence at the end like, “And that is why I hate you,” our expectation becomes that no more items will follow, even though nothing logically demands that the list closed. Part of what confers closure in this longer list is the break that the return to the big picture enacts. Similarly, with your literature review, and because the conclusion follows the last paragraph of your body in which you describe your research and delve into details, returning to the bigger stakes of your research question will seem like a noticeable change in topic. This, in turn, breaks the expectation for additional body paragraphs.

-Post adds value by raising novel points or providing new perspectives.

-Post is concise and clearly written in an academic tone; Sentences are complete; spelling, grammar and punctuation are correct.

Requirements: More than 15 characters. less than 4000 characters

CIS 170 Digital Crimes

CIS 170 Digital Crimes

For your final research paper in this course, you will write an analytical research paper addressing a major issue of your choosing from among the topics covered in this course. As a research paper, your paper will have to answer a significant puzzle related to a course topic.

For this assignment, you are essentially doing the first three elements of your research paper outlined below.

Title Page of the Paper: The title of your paper should be brief but should adequately inform the reader of your general topic and the specific focus of your research. Keywords relating to parameters, population, and other specifics are useful. The Title Page must include the title, name, course name and number, and Professor’s Name.

Introduction, Research Question, and Hypothesis: This section shall provide an overview of the topic that you are writing about, a concise synopsis of the issues, and why the topic presents a “puzzle” that prompts your research questions, which you will include. This section will be 1-2 pages. End your introduction with your research question.

Review of the Literature: All research projects include a literature review to set out for the reader what knowledge exists on the subject under study and helps the researcher develop the research strategy to use in the study. A good literature review is a thoughtful study of what has been written, a summary of the arguments that exist (whether you agree with them or not), arranged thematically. At the end of the summary, there should still be gaps in the literature that you intend to fill with your research. It is written in narrative format and can be from 4-6 pages depending on the scope and length of the paper.

As a literature review, this section should identify the common themes and theories that the prior research identified. In this section, what you do is look at the conclusions of prior research and identify what the common themes are you see in those conclusions. You then identify those themes.

Technical Requirements

  • Your paper must be at a minimum of 5-9 pages (the Title and Reference pages do not count towards the minimum limit).
  • Scholarly and credible references should be used. A good rule of thumb is at least 2 scholarly sources per page of content.
  • Type in Times New Roman, 12 point and double space.
  • Students will follow the current APA Style as the sole citation and reference style used in written work submitted as part of coursework.
  • Points will be deducted for the use of Wikipedia or encyclopedic type sources. It is highly advised to utilize books, peer-reviewed journals, articles, archived documents, etc.
  • All submissions will be graded using the assignment rubric

Requirements: 8 Pages   |
