A well-written conclusion should:

  1. Summarize Key Points: It should briefly recap the main arguments or findings presented in the document, reinforcing the critical aspects of the discussion.

  2. Provide Closure: The conclusion should effectively bring the discussion to a satisfying close, indicating to the reader that the text has reached its end while providing a sense of completion.

  3. Suggest Implications or Future Directions: It should highlight the significance of the findings or arguments and may suggest areas for further research, action, or implications for practice, thereby encouraging the reader to think beyond the text.
