Sebelum membuat kesimpulan, kita harus mengetahui apa yang dimaksud dengan istilah 'kesimpulan' (conclusion) dalam penulisan sebuah skripsi. Secara garis besarnya, kesimpulan (conclusion) dapat diartikan sebagai berikut:
a. Kesimpulan merupakan bab penutup berisi uraian singkat atau rincian yang merupakan konsekuensi pembahasan bab-bab sebelumnya,
b. Kesimpulan merupakan jawaban masalah yang telah dirumuskan dalam pendahuluan (ini yang terpenting). Jika ada tiga butir permasalahan Anda maka tiga atau empat butir juga kesimpulan Anda,
c. Kesimpulan menyajikan gambaran isi karya tulis yang telah diuraikan dalam bab-bab sebelumnya secara singkat dan meyakinkan,
d. Kesimpulan tidak menyajikan kutipan dan dermisi,
e. Kesimpulan tidak menyajikan hal-hal yang tidak diuraikan sebelumnya.
f. Kesimpulan skripsi/makalah disertai saran-saran yang ditujukan secara jelas kepada seseorang, sekelompok orang, atau sekelompok orang dalam lembaga tertentu.
Kesimpulan berupa interpretasi atas hasil analisis, dapat berupa inferensi dan dapat pula berupa implikasi. Inferensi adalah kesimpulan berdasarkan referensi, tidak melibat data secara langsung, sedangkan implikasi adalah keimpulan yang melibat data.
Secara umum persyaratan ejaan, pilihan kata, kalimat, dan paragraf, serupa dengan persyaratan bahasa pada naskah utama. Perbedaan terdapat pada pilihan kata terutama kata-kata transisi yang cenderung menunjukkan hubungan penegas, misalnya:
- dengan demikian, jadi (so, so that etc)
- dapat disimpulkan bahwa (It can be concluded that)
- fakta menunjukkan adanya kecenderungan (The fact shows that there is a tend to...)
- hubungan yang menyatakan hasil atau akibat, misalnya: jadi (so), hasilnya (the result), akibatnya (the effect is).
Kesimpulan dapat disajikan dalam dua bentuk, yakni:
a. Uraian paragraf, contohnya
Based on the research conducted in X grade at MA Darul Ma’arif Cipete in academic year 2010/2011, it can be concluded that the students could improve their writing ability of recount text through picture sequences.To improve students’ writing ability of recount text, the students analyze the schematic structures concerning orientation, events, and re-orientation of any kinds of stories based on the picture given then they have to retell the story using their own words into a good order of recount text.
