 * View the Introductory Paragraph Powerpoint Presentation - [[file:Writing_the_Introduction_to_Research_Paper.ppt]]
 * Clearly, the Introduction is meant to introduce the topic which stands to be argued.
 * Overall, the Introduction should funnel down which means it should start with broader, more general ideas and then get more specific.
 * View the Concluding Paragraph Powerpoint Presentation - [[file:Writing_the_Conclusion_to_Research_Paper.pptx]]
 * The Conclusion is the exact opposite of the Introduction.
 * Overall, the Conclusion should funnel out from your argument which means it should begin to extend or connect to the rest of the world beyond the specificity of the argument. Think about it like addressing all the effects of winning your argument.
 * Clearly, the Conclusion should provide a solid ending to the argument, leaving no room for doubt in the reader.
