Discussion and Conclusions This section provides an interpretation of the results by explaining what the results mean. This section should develop connections between what is known and what emerges from the research project to create new understandings or new knowledge.  It should also explain what research should be conducted to extend the research that you have done or to answer questions that you have uncovered? What is the logical next step for researchers in the field?
