What is a research conclusion?
The final section of a research paper that summarizes findings and discusses their implications.
Define 'research limitations'.
Factors that constrain the scope and generalizability of research findings.
What are 'research implications'?
The broader consequences or real-world impact of research findings.
Define a 'resolution' in research.
A proposed course of action to address a problem identified in research.
Define a 'solution' in research.
A specific method or approach to resolve a problem based on research evidence.
Why is it important to root conclusions in evidence?
To avoid making unsupported claims and ensure the validity of the research.
What is reflective skepticism?
Critically evaluating your own research and challenging your assumptions.
Why explore alternative perspectives?
To provide a more balanced and comprehensive analysis of the research topic.
What is the importance of considering the pros and cons of resolutions?
To provide a balanced view and acknowledge potential downsides.
What should you do when speculating in a conclusion?
Clearly state that it is speculation and provide a basis for it.
Why is evidence crucial in conclusions?
To support resolutions/solutions with research findings, avoiding unsupported claims.
How should speculation be handled in research?
Clearly identify it as speculation and explain its basis to maintain transparency.
Why is it important to challenge assumptions?
To identify potential biases or preconceptions that may have influenced the study.
What's the value of exploring alternative perspectives?
To consider different conclusions/solutions, potentially identifying better approaches.
Why consider pros and cons of solutions?
To provide a balanced assessment, acknowledging potential downsides of resolutions.
What is the role of a thesis in a conclusion?
The conclusion should restate the thesis and summarize how the research supports it.
How can personal reflection strengthen a conclusion?
Sharing your feelings about the research journey can provide a compelling starting point.
What is the significance of key takeaways?
Highlighting what the research revealed and what it didn't helps provide a comprehensive understanding.
How do challenges shape research?
Discussing difficulties faced and how they influenced the research adds depth and honesty.
