When doing an MLA conclusion the author has to make sure that the conclusion has a logical and unique closing statement that does not repeat the the opening statement but ties the the main points of the paper. The author also has to make sure that they do not use phrases like, "In this paper you have learned....". Other things the author of the paper need to make sure of is that, the purpose of the paper is met and the reaction to the main topic is presented. Grammatical errors like, correct capitalization, no underlining, alphabetized entries, double space indents, non numbered entries, entries formatted with "hanging indent", correctly formatted entries, and works cited list is cited in the paper. Another thing the author should make sure of is that, all titles of books and periodicals should be underlined or italicized and titles of short works should also be in quotes. Lastly, there should be no extra spaces between entries.
an example of a good conclusion....
