CONCLUSION

The conclusion is basically a summation of the meaning of your results. It may add value to your presentation, but it should interpret and not be repetitious. Your problem may not have been completely solved, so you would state that in your conclusion section. Don't feel badly if you could not finish your project, there is always next year. Remember, you are learning how to do research and you have no experience in estimating the difficulty of a problem or how long it takes to build special equipment. The important point is that if you try, you will learn from that experience. For example, experienced industrial chemists have to prepare an average of 10,000 new compounds before one is found to be a marketable pesticide!! Edison tried an estimated 20,000 filaments before he found one that would produce a reliable light bulb!!
