In this project, you will have an opportunity to demonstrate your organizational skills and your understanding of the outline format for a very practical application—your own research paper. The work you do on this outline will provide the skeletal framework for your paper. The better work you do today, the easier writing your paper will be.
Here is your goal for this assignment:
Write an outline for a research paper.
Reevaluate your notes. Make necessary changes in the general headings so that you have at least three general areas that relate to the thesis statement.
Write the outline to your paper based on the organization of your notes.
Type your outline below. Include your revised thesis at the top of your outline. Make sure that your outline contains at least three main headings, designated with Roman numerals.
Your project will be graded based on the following:
your attention to the instructions given above
use of proper outline format
logic and completeness of ideas for chosen thesis
use of proper punctuation, spelling, grammar, and sentence construction (commonly called “conventions”)
